Reportedly, Las Vegas isn’t doing all that well. The business model has changed as old hotels were demolished. I saw a video that claimed business model is moving away from middle class (if that is the appropriate term) and toward higher income oem Americans. Canadians aren’t coming as much as before Trump. No planes, no travel.

Also Interesting is that I received contribution requests from BOTH of these same Senators in that last 2-3 weeks, neither of whom are up for re-election in 2026, as far as I know. Mind you I have received requests from a number of people and PACs which I attributed to the impending elections and perceived uptick in voter interest, but these are two that stood out.
