We sorta told you so! You read here that Disney was so fed up with the antics of Governor Ron DeSantis that it was quietly appraising the land that hosts and surrounds Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. Well NO surprise to OUR readers that Disney CEO Bob Iger just dropped a major confirmation to our scoop. Bob was quoted as “questioning” whether the Governor APPRECIATED the jobs and $17 BILLION DOLLARS that Disney brings into the state of Florida each year. A well placed insider insists that while Disney is currently committed to staying in Florida, it IS thinking about showing DeSantis just how crucial they are to the state. While it’s still in the planning stages, one idea is to temporarily close the park for “renovations” and completely shut down all revenue into Florida. It’s not approved yet, but it’s possible if Ron keeps acting up. The nuclear option of pulling out of Florida remains on the table…

Desantis is gonna lose. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot. He’s an idiot.
Send Disney packing. They destroy the environment and Florida is sinking into the ocean.
From a practical standpoint, Disney is losing a lot of money and to try to move or shut the parks would be injudicious.
All this quite apart from any judgements on who’s being a dork.
Disney will win, Florida needs it more than it needs Florida.
