Permanent daylight savings time
12/14/24 at 04:06:21
 
OK, this is a topic that could make me walk away from Trump. I want permanent daylight savings time, not permanent standard time.

I don’t care if it’s dark in the morning, I want light as long as possible in the evenings. For one thing, I’m shocked that as a golfer he would even consider this. After work, it’s great to go out and play nine holes of golf which would be impossible for much of the summer if we went to standard time.

You idiot leftist impeached Trump for nothing, no reason at all, but this would be something to impeach a president over!

 I imagine he doesn't realize what Standard means or will result in.

Couldn't agree more.
Maybe it's just more 4D chess. Announce the Intention that will bring backlash.

Where I live in Saskatchewan the clocks never go back or forward.  Right now it is not light until 9am.
Provinces either side of us change, the result being I never know what the time is elsewhere.

I've had the same thought.
Why not?

Because not everyone will do the same.

I don't care one way or the other, but stop flipping back and forth.  That just messes with my biorhythm.

In Houston, during daylight savings time in summer, it's light until 9pm.  It wouldn't bother me if it was getting dark at 8pm.

Conversely, in winter under standard time, I don't like it getting dark at 5pm and it wouldn't bother me if sunset was at 6pm.

Move to the equator.  Problem solved.

No. That compromise satisfies no one. Maximum weight in the evenings is what 99% of the people want.

I think you’re right. In 2022 when this was brought up, he was in favor of it. I think someone just asked him and off the cuff and because it was daylight savings time at the time, I think that’s what he was thinking. Again, he’s a golfer. All golfers want light in the evening during the summer as long as possible.

Unless you're an early morning summer golfer in Houston trying to beat the heat.  You should come down here and play a round from 4pm-8pm and tell me how much you enjoy it.   Undecided

 I asked my property manager in FL what he would prefer and he said the same thing basically:  "We all golf in the mornings.  Evening golf is hot with inconsistent weather.  You have never paid for afternoon golf, I mean work meetings."

 In Southern Colorado it's entirely seasonal.  Mornings in the spring and summer, evenings in the fall, hardcore only in the winter.  Ice Ballers.

You’ll only see a handful of young guys playing after 1pm in the summer here.  Twilight rates start at like 2pm if you want to pay half price and risk a heat stroke. In addition to the oppressive heat, the afternoons are also prone to wicked thunderstorms.

Only people with half a brain play after noon in the summer.  I have golfed in January in the afternoon when it’s in the 60s-70s and nice.

I have. Cart girls made a fortune. Houston weather is a challenge to say the least.
