You'd be bad at running a hotel, then. Unoccupied rooms are a capital investment (likely under mortgage for tax reasons) that isn't paying for itself. Just ask any landlord.

Last minute cancellations by a third party to give you a lower price is an abuse of a system meant for exceptional circumstances.

Comment Re:EVs scale fine on the existing grid (Score 1) 363

If an EV is plugged into a 120V outlet for an entire 30 day month, that's still only about 1,008 kWhrs. It's dwarfed by the cost of rent, and even then that's only if an EV is always plugged in and consuming the maximum safe wattage--never idling, and everyone hot-plugging without interruption.

Maybe he is a shrewd businessman and negotiator, but he's definitely an asshole with a list of character and criminal defects who has no problem commiserating with white supremacists, Christian nationalists, and sexual predators, as long as they claim to be loyal to him. He's already backtracking on campaign promises like lowering grocery prices, lying about getting Mexico to "close its border", consistently backs fossil fuels even though they keep getting more expensive while renewables keep getting cheaper, and somehow still doesn't understand how tariffs work. I don't know how you missed all of this, but your brother didn't.
