Those companies are free to leave if they find business and government conditions so untenable in Florida, but they know it is very profitable to do business there.


It could be just as profitable in New Jersey, Maryland, Mississippi, etc. If Disney closed and relocated Florida would be in big trouble.


Well, then. If so simple and profitable, they should follow your suggestion and move out of Florida.


All they have to do is shut down for a few months and DeSantis would be impeached.

How do you move multiple theme parks. You are not being serious. The only thing Disney can do is keep their corporate offices and decision making in California. Disney should halt the transfer of many of their employees to Orlando from Anaheim. The theme parks are permanent, but Disney can stop the building in Florida.

Disney's problem is all the land. Disney set up long ago, when the land was cheap and plentiful. They got a special local government arrangement because there was no adequate local government, no services, no utilities or infrastructure. Disney built all of it. Trying to replicate that somewhere else in America would be difficult. DeSantis is a bastard. Disney should sue Florida and DeSantis for all they are worth.


There is plenty of land available and the locals will give them a better deal if Disney shopped around. The thing is the parks are not a large part of the revenues.


The theme parks are the largest part of Disney revenue. It's not streaming. The theme parks are holding Disney stock from falling to $50.00. Streaming revenue, or lack thereof is killing Disney.

I agree, but the shareholders would have Iger's head. Disney is between a rock and a hard place.

DP but as a theme park fanatic, I can tell you both things are true. Theme parks lose money on ticket sales, but make money on merchandise, restaurants, alcohol, hotels, etc.

Then let them do it, but I bet they won't.

The awesome move would be if Disney called his bluff. Many shorts would be soiled that day I tell you.


Agree and I suspect the Mouse House lawyers have something spectacular up their sleeves and bury DeSantis in mouse dung.


+1. Disney employs a lot of lawyers and marketing specialists. They don't need to buy DeSantis off. They will simply intervene in the politics of the state and bury him so deep he may have to leave Florida to see the light of day in politics again.

The demise of Ron DiSantis is highly overstated.

Trying writing what you believe will happen vice what you want to happen.

It’s interesting because I hate DeSantis
But I also know that Disney can really suck too.
I’ve had to deal with them for theatre contracts and
I hate them.
They hold grudges.
Super interested to see how this plays out.

I'm the PP at 20:53. What I know is that DeSantis has never been tested politically outside his little Florida cocoon. I also know that in polls of Republican voters he consistently comes in second after Donald Trump - even in Florida. And now he has made an enemy of Disney. None of these things are really giving off a warm glow of success.

It's true. Did you see what the Mouse did to the Jonas Brothers? They never really recovered. https://youtu.be/4IAj7UxMqiU

We will see. He’s an elite and he actually said, “there’s a new sheriff in town” in relation to the Disney fiasco. He seems to have an inflated ego.

He seems scared. Scared of words. Scared of men in dresses. Scared of black people. He’s a scared man.

This was a couple of days ago in a Florida diner - Fox's Brian Kilmeade can't find anyone to support DeSantis over Trump.
