Make your hotel reservations before Trumpflation kicks in

No one knows the extent to which Trump actually intends to carry out his "beautiful" tariffs and mass deportations. I doubt that he knows himself. But let's say that he's actually telling the truth (a stretch, I know) and intends to take those measures. We'll be facing 30% inflation as well as mass labor shortages. Do ya think that Vegas hotels will hold the line on prices?

So I recommend going well into the future--as far as you can, which in most cases is, I believe, a year--and lock in prices and dates while you can. I believe that most hotels will honor those prices when you reserve, even if their rack rates skyrocket between now and then. And if prices don't go up dramatically? No sweat, you still have the reservation, and can show up or not.

And of course, if the economy tanks (not an unlikely scenario), you don't have to honor your reservation at all, and can visit in the future for $6 a night.

(Of course, if that comes to pass, no one will have $6 to spend, unless they're Elon.)

Weren't you were warned by Anthony to keep the politics in the Sink?  That is a better place for bias.

Economic conditions have only a tangential relationship with politics, unless politicians make meddling with the economy a central focus of their campaigns and stated goals. And I received no such warning; have you received a warning to keep the personal attacks inside the Sink? Just askin'.

Oh, and it ain't "bias" to state reality. You, I, and everyone else who isn't MAGA know what the effects of Trump's policies (if enacted) will be. In fact, I suspect that most of the MAGAs, deep in their dark little hearts, know as well.

But hey, to each his own. if you want to wait to book your annual Vegas fling until rooms are $700 a night (plus tax and resort fee), that's your privilege.

Best in the Sink.  I have no comments here beyond this is in the wrong place.

           Apparently some people are the exception to the rules....

No, you're not.

This is Kevin's board, not the LVA's.   We need to lower our expectations here.

The sad fact that you're on the wrong side of the political divide doesn't have any relevance here. You don't like my posts--yet, you comment on them. Hmmmm.

  Lewis - you are the one who injects politics into other forum sites instead of keeping political comments in the Sink. You delibertly do this to vent and to corrupt the posted topic - and then you get all pissy when someone comments about you not keeping politics out of these other forum sites.

David, you regularly stalk me outside the Sink and make gratuitous posts with no other purpose than to express your anger. Like the above post.
