So this idiot wants DST to be the standard, instead of the actual Standard time. Typical trump fucking up a good idea. In 1974 we did this and people HATED it. The whole planet should be on Standard time. If you need to change hours so your business is open more during daylight, change your damn Winter hours, don't expect an entire nation to change the clock.

That's the plan Congress has been tossing around for years. It's always staying on Daylight time for some stupid reason.
