18. Not so fast.

I just got off a Disney cruise with the grandkids. Passengers from all over the world -- Europe, Asia, south America. Disney, being Disney, is incredibly LGBT-friendly and our dining room steward happily chatted about his husband. Entertainment by gay-friendly performers.

And Viking river cruises? I've never met a denser concentration of Trump haters in one place. They're travelers. They've been out in the world. They know how the rest of the world feels about Trump.
