Agreed. He thinks he’s gaining supporters by suggesting the building of a prison next to Disney??

Or levying a special tax on hotels in the area.

Desantis is scrambling to wipe the egg off his face. Everything is so interwoven that the solution of levying/prison/second amusement park won’t be as simple as it sounds. He tried to dissolve the whole reedy creek district and then realized that you can’t pluck it out of the ground like a weed without incurring a billion dollar debt that the surrounding counties would have to cover. Naturally, they didn’t like the idea. Whatever he’s thought of, I’m pretty sure the Disney lawyers are on top of it.

He could build his prison and it would probably hurt Disney, but why would a governor go out of their way to drive away tourists from a large metropolitan area that relies on tourism?

Disney World sits on 40 square miles of land owned by Disney. The prison idea is asinine because the property at the edges of Disney property is expensive. The businesses around it survive on the tourist traffic. High priced toll roads would cause the same problems for businesses in Osceola and Orange counties.

If he really wanted to do it, he could use eminent domain to seize land for it. The point is that it would be the most petty asinine politically suicidal action that a governor could possibly make

Sure. And the state would pay a fortune. That land is worth a lot. Disney would fight to get every penny.

That would depend on if Disney ever fought an assessment. Hard to argue a patch of swamp is worth hundrends of millions when you just argued that it was worthless

Why indeed! Why is he spending SO MUCH taxpayer time and money pursuing this personal grudge that isn't even helping HIM let alone the rest of the state?

Meanwhile, is he still off showboating around Ohio or has he bothered coming back to Florida to at least put on a pair of white boots and pretend he cares about Ft Lauderdale?

We still have a housing crisis and an insurance crisis here in Florida, too. But sure, sign a six week abortion ban in the middle of the night as hurricane season approaches once again. Great prioritizing. Surely there's time to hold a good old fashioned book burning before heading back out on the trail again, too.

Are you in florida? Is the public getting weary of his grandstanding? It’s hard to believe there is a politician that I dislike as much as trump, but desantis really is making his case. I’m assuming the panhandle is rah rah desantis still, but surely the Tampa side of florida must be getting sick of him, no?

I am in Florida. I find it hard to tell if the whole state is getting sick of him - but it feels like he's reached a tipping point where people really are just tired of this sh**. I don't really know, though. I hated him from the beginning - though there was a very brief period, during the first part of his first term, where it seemed like he was acting like a serious person, and was also making overtures to those who didn't vote for him. THAT DeSantis is certainly long gone. He is just an exhausting person, who seems profoundly unserious. And it's not like he's too stupid to be serious - he jut decided that was more political advantageous for him. That's almost what makes it worst of all - he could be doing a decent job, and being a kind of normal person, and he just flgured it was more expedient to be an evil clown.

It just makes me joyful to see Disney destroy him. That pudding-smeared idiot.

Everything he does at this point should be viewed through the lens of a Presidential run. He's obviously decided that these actions are in his political interest in terms of winning states in the Primary.

He's made some bad strategic calls as far as that goes. He's also taking Florida for granted, which he shouldn't.

It's not like he will lose FL in a Presidential run. Now he's trying to go so far right with these social issues so he can win the other states.

Yes, we all understand what he's doing - thank you. What we're saying is that he's doing it badly and in these dark times it brings some joy to see him so badly humiliated. No one deserves humiliation more than he does.

Why do you think he's doing it badly?

I mean maybe he’s doing it well, and this is a primary vs. presidential run thing. He needs to get Trump’s hard right base during the primary while looking less incompetent/corrupt than Trump to the smarter folks in the middle. He’ll of course have to pivot hard during the Presidential run at that point because the far right will vote for him regardless. But, in reality, he’s probably just very thin skinned.

Once a politician has captured Trump's hard right base, no thinking independent or moderate will vote for them. Particularly given the stance on banning books, banning abortions and promoting guns. In 2024, these are the main issues that most suburban moms will be weighing. And on every count, the GOP loses. Americans do not want to live in a Christo-Fascist state.

He's doing it badly because he was viewed as the most normal, stable, moderate-ish candidate - and that's why he had support. But instead he turned himself into a petty, trans-obsessed clown who is trying to burn down Disney - Disney! - and burning himself down instead. His polling shows how badly he's doing this. His dwindling support from the big donors, who are speaking to the media about how his behavior and weird obsessions are giving them pause. And it's not like it's translating into a huge surge of support - he's losing, badly, to Trump at this point. He seems to be viewed simultaneously as a chaotic far right weirdo, AND as a stick up his a** Paul Ryan acolyte. And that's because everyone can smell the inauthenticity - the unformed raw ambition that seeks power and doesn't really have anything behind it.

Trump = who I consider one of the great monsters of our times - at least seems authentic in his lies and inauthenticity. He is the guy in the bizarre orange makeup and flabby suit who grabs women and steals everything he can get his hands on, and lies and lives in a weird mansion with a gold toilet. He can't really walk well and insults people constantly, and has a strange fixation on his own daughter. He craves the spotlight and he craves love, and that's who he is. We know him. I HATE him, but we know him.

Who is DeSantis? Do you think you know? He's a cipher.

Another Florida resident here. I live in Orlando, and while Orange County went blue last election my enclave of friends love him. I mean just think he's the greatest. One acquaintance is now "no longer doing Disney" because her cult leader tells her to hate them. It's profoundly stupid and short sited. Hate gay people all you want but then a. we won't be friends, which is fine, but b. do it on your own time.

Orlando exists as a major city because of the tourists that Disney draws

He tried to dissolve the whole reedy creek district and then realized that you can’t pluck it out of the ground like a weed without incurring a billion dollar debt that the surrounding counties would have to cover. Naturally, they didn’t like the idea. Whatever he’s thought of, I’m pretty sure the Disney lawyers are on top of it.

He could build his prison and it would probably hurt Disney, but why would a governor go out of their way to drive away tourists from a large metropolitan area that relies on tourism?

Why indeed! Why is he spending SO MUCH taxpayer time and money pursuing this personal grudge that isn't even helping HIM let alone the rest of the state?

Meanwhile, is he still off showboating around Ohio or has he bothered coming back to Florida to at least put on a pair of white boots and pretend he cares about Ft Lauderdale?

We still have a housing crisis and an insurance crisis here in Florida, too. But sure, sign a six week abortion ban in the middle of the night as hurricane season approaches once again. Great prioritizing. Surely there's time to hold a good old fashioned book burning before heading back out on the trail again, too.

Are you in florida? Is the public getting weary of his grandstanding? It’s hard to believe there is a politician that I dislike as much as trump, but desantis really is making his case. I’m assuming the panhandle is rah rah desantis still, but surely the Tampa side of florida must be getting sick of him, no?

I am in Florida. I find it hard to tell if the whole state is getting sick of him - but it feels like he's reached a tipping point where people really are just tired of this sh**. I don't really know, though. I hated him from the beginning - though there was a very brief period, during the first part of his first term, where it seemed like he was acting like a serious person, and was also making overtures to those who didn't vote for him. THAT DeSantis is certainly long gone. He is just an exhausting person, who seems profoundly unserious. And it's not like he's too stupid to be serious - he jut decided that was more political advantageous for him. That's almost what makes it worst of all - he could be doing a decent job, and being a kind of normal person, and he just flgured it was more expedient to be an evil clown.

It just makes me joyful to see Disney destroy him. That pudding-smeared idiot.

Everything he does at this point should be viewed through the lens of a Presidential run. He's obviously decided that these actions are in his political interest in terms of winning states in the Primary.

He's made some bad strategic calls as far as that goes. He's also taking Florida for granted, which he shouldn't.

It's not like he will lose FL in a Presidential run. Now he's trying to go so far right with these social issues so he can win the other states.

Yes, we all understand what he's doing - thank you. What we're saying is that he's doing it badly and in these dark times it brings some joy to see him so badly humiliated. No one deserves humiliation more than he does.

Agreed. He thinks he’s gaining supporters by suggesting the building of a prison next to Disney??

Another Florida resident here. I live in Orlando, and while Orange County went blue last election my enclave of friends love him. I mean just think he's the greatest. One acquaintance is now "no longer doing Disney" because her cult leader tells her to hate them. It's profoundly stupid and short sited. Hate gay people all you want but then a. we won't be friends, which is fine, but b. do it on your own time.
