Did the cruise lines not give enough to the DNC that they are now to be put to death?

“With that, the pressure has been growing from a political side, as economies are starting to feel the absence of the cruise lines, especially in Florida.”

Do you think .GOV is doing this to hurt Governor DeSantis?

I have cruised from foreign ports before, and willing to do it again. It is so sad that American workers and businesses are being punished and singled out because of the leftist thinking that cruisers are mostly rich-old-white people.

Biden is looking to house the homeless/and or the newly arrived illegals in these idle cruise ships.

More control by the deep state. They aren’t going to give up control willingly. Ever.

The orchestrated reaction to Covid-19 has been the biggest threat against Western Civilization to date.

I believe that ,in the sense it hurts a potential future Republican presidential candidate, and Florida is a Republican state, and IMHO from my experiences, a lot of repeat cruisers from around the country are Republicans. -Tom

Do you follow the Florida suit to open cruising? What status is that in?

DeSantis, Trump, Rubio, etc.

According to wikipedia, the top cruise ports in the world (by passengers) from 2017 are:

  1. Port of Miami (4,980,490)
  2. Port Canaveral (4,248,296)
  3. Port Everglades (3,826,415)
  4. Port of Galveston (1,730,289)
  5. Port of New York and New Jersey (1,537,695>
  6. Port of San Juan (1,379,367)
  7. Port of New Orleans (1,048,112)
  8. Port of Tampa (1,000,000)

The top 3 cruise ports in the world are in Florida.

#11 is in Texas.

The Democrats must know how much this is hurting the economies of those areas, but because it is Florida the ends justify the means.

Even though Broward and Dade counties are heavily Democratic, when the Godfather calls in his favor, you take the hit.

The problem is that cruise lines are racist. It's a pastime for privileged whites.

Approx 14 million passengers out of Florida (if I tallied that correctly). That’s a ton of lost business!

Democrats are criminals.

Yes, plus the dock workers, porters, food supply companies, parking lots, terminal workers, hotels for before/after, taxis/shuttles, airports, etc.

There is a whole ecosystem of Florida workers and businesses that's been shut down by this in Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, Canaveral, and Tampa.
