[23:33] IsambardPrince It costs $240 for 12 months of 15 GB 5G data so this gets it down to about $16 a month on my second year.

So $240 invested for 23 months at 9.4% would return $45. [23:36] IsambardPrince That's a pretty good return even though they dropped this offer after I had already paid for this one. [23:41] *parsifal (~parsifal@6thegygyadsu4.irc) has joined #techrights [23:52] IsambardPrince The AmEx is usually my grocery getter card because it has such a jaw dropping rate on grocery stores.

[23:53] IsambardPrince [14:33] isn't she even less popular than Joe I? [23:54] IsambardPrince MinceR: Well, that's a nuanced thing you're talking about. [23:54] IsambardPrince Among people who know who she is, she's not popular. But that's a very small percentage of the country. [23:54] IsambardPrince Naturally, all of the Trump crazies hate her and call her camel toe harris. [23:54] IsambardPrince But they hated Biden, so what's changed? [23:54] IsambardPrince The Democrats will vote for the Democrat. [23:54] IsambardPrince But most people in this country have no idea who the Vice President is and don't care. [23:55] IsambardPrince Other than making tie breaking votes in the US Senate, the Vice President really has no Constitutional role in our government. [23:56] IsambardPrince I suppose theoretically, Congress could pass laws adding official duties for the Vice President, but it never has. [23:56] IsambardPrince MinceR: Several times, the Vice President became Acting President or ascended to the Presidency. But that's the only other Constitutional role they have. [23:57] IsambardPrince Also, it's theoretically possible and has happened before that the Vice President could be from another political party, but the only time it's happened was in the 1800s under a different electoral college method than we use now. [23:58] IsambardPrince The only way it could happen now would be if there's a 269-269 split in the electoral college and the House and Senate are split such that they choose a President and Vice President from opposing tickets. [23:58] MinceR :) [23:58] MinceR that's vice monarch now [23:58] IsambardPrince In such a case, each House delegation has one vote, not each house member. [23:58] IsambardPrince So they would probably vote for Trump even if the Democrats had a majority. [23:59] IsambardPrince Because all 52 of California's have one vote among them. [23:59] IsambardPrince And so do all 1 of Wyoming's. [23:59] IsambardPrince :) [23:59] IsambardPrince But in the Senate, each Senator gets one vote for VP.
