If Osama was alive today, would he have found support from some liberals in the same way they now support Palestine?
It's not his fault. He's just stupid.
Well, he is certainly not helping.
There's just something wrong with his medulla oblongata
I like his policies but unfortunately he goes to another extreme
His “policies” are nothing more than showboating to voters
You lost us all at 'like'
Disney was already cost cutting including 7,000 job cuts prior to this. Are we supposed to believe it wasn't already planned? Disney is fighting for special treatment. No other business gets their carve outs. I'm glad DeSantis is taking the mouse to the outhouse.
They already had "special treatment", from the 1960s, and it was working just fine. Then DeSantis got mad that a person (because corporations are people, too) said something he didn't like and decided to use the power of the government to punish that person for using their first amendment rights. Now he's finding out how much power they have. I really would love to see Disney relocate to another state, although I doubt they would.
Why do you believe only some companies deserve special treatment under the law? You're delusional if you think they'll leave, they would take a $100bn loss on all the infrastructure. It's impossible to relocate most of the rides.
I hope this means Florida gets a park with Jesus riding a dinosaur
Ironically, but completely serious as a Christian I would bet my last dollar Jesus has actually ridden a dinosaur before. Also, I sure wouldn’t mind doing that when I get to heaven! My 3 year old son would also like to do that!
I'm a Christian too and I'd bet my last dollar that Jesus and Satan fought on the Death Star with Lightsabers and cocaine.
Florida has always had a rocky relationship with Disney. At one point Disney was trying to create a Vatican like city state inside Florida with its own government and currency. Very weird stuff
It’s good for Disney and bad for DeSantis. People should care about their job first and then party line.
DeSantis' approval is up 3% since the election, in which he won by a landslide including flipping massive amounts of Hispanic voters and turning Miami red. This is bad for DeSantis because MSNBC wrote an article while his approval skyrockets? Lol. In case you were talking about population, Florida is in the midst of a massive influx of people mostly from California, Illinois and New York. People overwhelmingly support DeSantis both at the ballot box and with their feet.
Who wants to live in humid florida with a bunch of bigots and nothing to do?
I don’t live in FL. I don’t invest in Disney. Should I care?
Short answer - yes
Why?
I wish Disney publishes a plan to move their parks out of Florida, just to mess with him
DeSantis: 80% taxes to all immigrants on the day I become US president. You know I am leading the poll, right?
Go anti-woke, go broke! 😂
Yeah, the lesson is don’t go woke or anti woke
Get woke or go broke.
