He could actually do something constructive saving millions of man hours twice a year but he doesn't give a $hit. :roll:

What he has said is..the country is divided..some like one, some like the other.

I say..lose the one that gets dark early. That’s the one that sucks.

The point is to stop people wasting millions of man hours twice a year changing their clocks not which is preferred. I just wasted 2 hours today doing mine. :roll:

TWO HOURS?? How the hell many clocks do you have to change? Was most of that time adjusting the one in your car? I had four clocks to change, plus the ones in our cars, which I'll probably get to tomorrow. Those four took maybe ten minutes, including rehanging the two wall clocks. That was a bit tricky.

Hell, I have 4 clocks in my bedroom! Then there are clocks in coffee makers, clocks in microwaves, a clock in the stove, clocks in electronic components like radios, clocks in a lot of things. And you usually have to consult manuals which are hidden someplace else. And when you get old it takes longer to figure out what they mean. You will find that out some day if your lucky. ;)

So, half the country LIKES the time change, but he should end it so Steve doesn't have to change four clocks in his bedroom. Ah.

You don't read very well. That's just the ones in the bedroom. But, the main point here is Trump has hinted he would favor a change to eliminate DST. But, once the election was over that eliminated his motivation. Why bother if there is nothing in it for him. He will not be running again. And Trump never ever does anything if there is no benefit for him.

Wait, FOUR clocks in your bedroom? Kinky. And how many coffeemakers, microwaves & stoves do you have?

Sounds like Plano volunteered to change all the clocks in the nursing home.

Trump says a lot of stuff he doesn’t follow through with.

Maybe. But it seems to be a chronic condition with Trump.

I read VERY well, thank you.

This is, Quite possibly, an even more retarded thread than your earlier retarded threads
