Sail Away Suckers

TBH: Some cruise lines had started to offer 3 year cruises prior to the election. This seems to be a marketing spin effort mostly based on the philosopher P.T. Barnum's observation that: There's a sucker born every minute.

Katherine Tangalakis-Lippert Nov 9, 2024

• A residential cruise line offers a four-year voyage for passengers seeking an extra-long vacation.
• A single-person room on the ship for four years costs $255,999, promising visits to 140 countries...

...If the state of the world — or the latest election results — have got you considering whether you want to leave the United States, Villa Vie Residences wants to throw its hat in the ring as an option for temporary relocation.

The residential cruise line on Thursday announced new "Skip Forward" packages for passengers to set sail aboard the Villa Vie Odyssey for as long as four years. All-inclusive tickets start at $255,999 for single-occupancy rooms. A double-occupancy room starts at $319,998 for the four-year trip, promising visits to 140 countries across all seven continents.

You can also book a two-year "Midterm Selection" package for $150,399 for a single cruiser or $187,998 for two if you'd like to try things out at home again after the results of the 2026 election. One-year and three-year tickets aboard the never-ending cruise are also available.

The ship comes equipped with spa facilities and fitness programs, and tickets include meals — with complimentary beer and wine served during lunch and dinner...

Bon Voyage

If you find yourself in the "New Minority" and are struggling to wonder why your head seems so firmly planted up your keester, you may want to check out this motivational speaker, then Book That Cruise. Might be a good idea to add the Vance package for a discount on adding 4 more years to the cruise.

James Carville GOES OFF On DC-Based Democrats For Pushing ‘Identity Sh*t’: ‘Get Your Ass Out Of Washington!’
David GilmourNov 12th, 2024

Democratic strategist James Carville unleashed on Democrats after Vice President Kamala Harris’s election defeat to President-elect Donald Trump and slammed Washington-based Democrats for what he claimed was a misguided embrace of identity politics.

Carville addressed Politicon with a 20-minute call for a strategic reassessment of the party’s approach during which he reflected on missed opportunities in the past election.

Throughout, however, in signature style, Carville opened up on his party colleagues as the consequences of the election weighed in. At one point he blasted: “We have no legislative power, we have no executive power, we have no judicial power. So when you’re out of power, you’re an opposition party.”

Carville’s frustration spilled over again as he slammed what he sees as the out-of-touch priorities of Democrats in the Beltway bubble.

He said: “What you’ve done ain’t worth a shit. Get your head around that. And all of the Washington-based Democrats farting around, going to wine and cheese parties, and talking about how misogynistic the race is—get your ass out of Washington, and go work on a 2026 campaign and do penance to make up for your goddamn arrogance and stupidity.”

He continued: “We’re going to say we told you so. We told you this identity shit was disaster. We told you to get out in front of public safety issues. You didn’t.”

Summing up his frustration with the party’s recent direction, Carville called the Democrats’ embrace of “Defund the Police” and similar ideas part of a “stupid God damn identitarian mission.”

“The entire era of Jackassery,” he declared.

Rounding off, Carville urged Democrats to rebuild the party’s infrastructure and to resist attacking different voter demographics.

“Go and tell all the people that are sending you and asking you for money, justify what you did,” he said. “Justify what you did wrong, and tell us what you’re going to do different.”

FWIW: They do have wine and cheese parties on those cruises...
