    I don’t understand why Trump can’t just issue an executive order directing the sun to shine for a minimum of 12 hours a day all year long.

      He tried to set himself as the alpha wolf against the Sun when he stared at it during the dollar eclipse several years ago. He had to back off before he went blind because the insolent Sun wouldn’t bend to his will. So he already knows it won’t respect an executive order.

    “I think he just doesn’t want the clocks to go back and forth.”

    A broken clock is right twice a day, and we just found something I agree with Trump about.

    Each clock change (yes, in both directions) is followed by a spike in cardiac events and car crashes. I care more about getting rid of the change than which time is made permanent.
