Realistically, the banks will start offering longer loans, would be my expectation.

If you thought 6 year loans were already too long, wait til you start seeing 8-10 year long ones for new vehicles!

An Amendment takes 2/3 of Congress to approve though, not just a majority.

I can imagine plenty of Dems in Congress would say "fuck it, let's try Obama again" though and roll the dice on approving it :-/

Especially because Iran HAD a nuclear deal with the US that they were adhering to and Trump broke that deal in his first term!

Why would they ever risk entering an agreement like that with the US ever again‽

In my experience, Zoomers largely lack a lot of computer skills (specifically in troubleshooting), but, for me the huge difference between them and the older folks has been that the older folks will say things like "I'm just not a computer person ::laugh::" and refuse to be shown how to do anything whereas the Zoomer just doesn't know, yet, but are more than willing to learn.

ETA: NOTE: that's just the generalized trend ... some of the most knowledgeable technical people I've met are Boomers and some of the best computer techs I've worked with have been Zoomers.

No, Republicans definitely had this in the bag. Had there been a chance it wouldn't have gone through, at least a couple of them would have dissented and sided with the Republicans.

It'll still be the fault of Democrats and the Trans/DEI agenda for burning all the money.

If their supporters were capable of logical thought they wouldn't be their supporters (not saying they'd be Dems, but they definitely wouldn't be supporting these fucks).

The onion editors felt bad for making Biden seem more likable than he is, so, it doesn't seem completely implausible that someone could intentionally do something similar for Vance.

A child dying is going to make them double down, honestly. At this point they will REALLY refuse to acknowledge that the kids death was 100% their fault since taking accountability is not something these people are willing to do

Have they tried yelling BLUE NO MATTER WHO or saying NOTHING WILL FUNDAEMNTALLY CHANGE if they're elected? I'm led to believe that voters love that!

My AmazFit Bip could do a month when it was new (it's down to ~10 days now after a few years), so I would think a month from Pebble would be feasible.

I don't understand using a watch that you can't use for AT LEAST a weekend without power ... as it is, I'm pissed off that I'm down to 10 days (it's stayed steady here for 6 months or so, so, I'm hoping it won't degrade too much more before the new Pebble comes out).
