The Republicans always say the quiet part out loud but the sad thing is their voters. Seldom seem to care

DeSantis needs to learn about the sunk cost fallacy. This isn't going to get better for him.

Thankfully this time public perception won’t rule. They talked their way right into what looks to be pretty clear cut claims by Disney. They connected the dots themselves.

I hope this ends up destroying him

He's getting sued for government retaliation. As he should. Love the end when they talk about how fortunate D is to do this, as smaller businesses who were retaliated against may not have the resources. Calls to mind the venues that lost their liquor licenses for hosting drag events. Go Disney for the little guys.
Does anyone wonder if Disney is quietly negotiating land in say, the carolinas?

Even if Disney is not looking for Landon other states, I sure would let it leave that I was. And let Florida know all those millions and tourist revenue and jobs are going to be gone if you're coming or doesn't stop acting like an asshat

Yes. It's probably prohibitively expensive to re-locate, but it's getting really politically expensive having all eggs in a FL basket.

Why don’t they end all their FL resident discounts and perks as was tossed around in the rumor mill in 2022 ?

Instead they’ve come out with a new slew of them just in the past weeks.

FL residents make up 8% of visitors.

Why not offer the discounts to others?

Fl resident and parent of a LGTBQ Disney CM here. I know I, and lots of people I know, are making extra visits to Disney in support of them. I actually don't know anyone IRL who supports DeSantis on this issue-it's more like, why is this dude going after Disney, he had his own wedding there, he's making Florida look crazy.

Disney managed to get their copyrights extended in the late 90s. I doubt they will be able to do that now. It's why we have a horror movie with Winnie the Pooh.

The hats are not copyright, they're trademark, and DeSantis is going to lose.

+1. this is trademark infringement, and there is no time limit for trademarks as long as they are used. I can't even start rapping my head around a governor from the alleged "law & order" party and presidential candidate violating TMs of a large US corporation....

oh, and thinking that Disney's "weakest" point is its trademarks means you dont have a brain that thinks
