This past weekend, the clocks sprung forward and stole an hour of sleep from all of us. Like a Sour Patch Kid or an elementary school children’s concert, Daylight Saving Time is a bit of a To-Do, but the payoff is sweet. In exchange for losing that chunk of sleep, we get more daylight in the evenings. It's an occasion so joyous that it unites both sides of the aisle. So why don't we just keep it this way? That's an excellent question.

That's the same thought President Trump had on Monday morning when he tweeted out support for moving the clocks forward permanently. Sure, we’d presumably lose an hour of time forever, but in this climate, who's really trying to add another hour? Permanent kiss-ass and Very Good Boy, Senator Marco Rubio, tweeted to Trump that he recently re-filed a bill called the Sunshine Protection Act that would do just that.

If passed, the bill would move clocks forward one hour permanently and do just as Trump tweeted because even after all the negative things Trump has said about Rubio, he still loves to be daddy's favorite.

Making Daylight Saving Time permanent is O.K. with me! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 11, 2019

The bill, which is cosponsored by U.S. Senator Rick Scott, isn't the first of its kind. The Orlando Sentinel reported that last year, Rubio filed a bill of the same nature, though it didn't make it to the floor for debate. America needs a W though, and this could be the ticket. The only real losers in the situation would be Alaska and the country's most northern states, which would see some very dark winter mornings, but maybe it's about time they take one for the team?

The hard line here is that this would mean agreeing with, well, this President. Trump, who is rumored to not show up to work until well after the sun has come up anyway, wouldn't even really notice the difference. As for the rest of us leaving work shrouded in darkness for five months of the year, a little sunlight would be a welcome change in December. Here's to bipartisanship and having a drink when the sun goes down.
