ceo arnold donald telling cnbc they're only seeing a small spike in cans lakes.see if we start to see more variants this has not been an easy pandemic for the cruise lines to navigate, and the stocks really move on covid headlines. in fact, here is a question to you, brian >> uh-oh >> name any other sector more reactive to covid news than the cruise lines last week there was more encouraging headlines around the pfizer and merck drugs getting approval that sent the stock up today it of the sentiment changed and you see where it is trading today. longer-term success really hinges on next year and the cruise lines returning to profitability. we are eyeing sort of the second half of next year for those targets. >> and i can't answer your question, seema. i don't know of another group as volatile mike santoli, that goes to the trade. if i was an al goe rhythmical trader, you put an algo in every time you any them, you start to sell them you buy certain other stocks this has become like a dumb pattern at this point. >> right and it kind of works until it doesn't. ther

that really unfortunate kicked off the day after thafnksgiving with the omicron announcement >> arnold donaldeek with us and expects to be back to full capacity by i think june of next year. is that going to happen? >> oh, i think the capacity will be back. that's not the issue you have the ships sailing how many people are going on them and the price that means there's a lot of birt births or beds rooms to fill hopefully we'll get the customers at the right price the news doesn't help with the bookings, put it that way. >> will this group trade as one or do you have a clear preference between them? >> they have been historically trading pretty closely to each other. i don't have any buy ratings but it would be norwegian if i did certainly skews to an older clientele and more likely to be triple vaccinated. some luxury ships are smaller. people like that and tend to be on average a higher price point and that is doing well and taking one if i had to pick i have a neutral rating on norwegian and would pick it out of the three thank you. >> why don't you have a buy rating on them isn't there a

we've seen celebrity work in certain ways, arnold schwarzenegger in california, donald trump, caitlinenner didn't pull too well in california. interesting to see how it plays out. carley: matthew mcconaughey was thinking of running for governor in texas and decided not to. pennsylvania, the most battleground, one of the biggest battleground states in the country and what he said on hannity last night, he is a strong conservative. we will see how that plays out for him but it is interesting that he is deciding to go from the celebrity thing into politics. i don't understand why people would do it because politics is such a dirty game, such a bloodsport but he is all in. todd: the people we see in politics don't they come off unnatural, not real, not like you and i am normal people run their life, people crave somebody they can relate to. maybe not a socioeconomic, donald trump -- somebody who talks like they do and says the things that they do and doesn't talk in these platitudes that you often hear politicians speaking in. that is why we see gravitation toward that person that communi

kind of re-enforce the gop message that you, too, can be a capitalist success story like donald trump, like arnolds and also why democrats stay away from celebrities because there is a sense that celebrities undercut our message of being for working people. >> yes or no, would kim kardashian have a good shot at the nomination in either party? >> she would have an excellent shot at the nomination, actually, on the gop side. she would have a much harder time on the democratic side because she would actually have to answer questions about health care finance. that's not something she probably knows a lot about. it's something that takes a lot of time in government to learn about, and it's not something the media would let her get away with if she was a democrat. if she was a republican, she would get a free ride on that, she could convert on immigration, on the choice issue, and the gop would very much embrace her, absolutely. >> you say it straight up with criticism for the press, which we're open minded to here because we're open to constructive criticism and we would just have to change it from bu

donald trump can do this, i can do this. it's also important to realize we've had celebrities use their celebrity to run for public office. ronald reagan, arnoldanger is it's celebrity plus propaganda. it's celebrity plus conning the american public, and we have had a long history of con men and women in the united states, you know, in the 18th and 19th century, they were all over the place. in the 20th century, the grift and propaganda, a new medium of radio. joe mccarthy wedded it to a new medium of television. donald trump in the 21st century and in the 2010s wedded it to social media and i think one of the more significant things for us to put our finger on with dr. oz is that he is embracing trumpism and he's yet another exhibit in the extent to which trumpism has overtaken the republican party because people like trump and people like dr. oz know that propaganda and division is successful among the republican base right now. and dr. oz comes from a history in television in which he promoted quackery. a significant portion of his shows were not evidence based, but he did it for years and the institutions that aired his disinformation empo
