War Comes to the Happiest Place on Earth
The Magic Kingdom Joins the Resistance in a Battle Against Grumpy
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis passed a law. Walt Disney executives spoke out against it, after some prodding from their employees. Gov. DeSantis, aka Grumpy, got upset. Disney had the audacity of expressing its 1st amendment rights. Technically, it was an executive. Then Grumpy passed another law to punish Disney. Disney Jail for you!
Disney, the biggest employer in Florida, announced it is stopping its political donations. That’s what has Republicans’ panties in a twist. Gov. DeSantis also dragged California into his war against Mickey Mouse [where the other Cinderella Castle is in the U.S]. Pitting California vs Florida values? Think California wouldn’t have a problem with its values.
Let’s pose a political question. If Disney is a “guest” in Florida? So, says DeSantis. Isn’t Trump too! Guess visitors are in different classes. Note: The Liberty Square Riverboat has been in Florida longer than Trump.
Isn’t Disney entitled to 1st amendment rights? Because corporations are people too? Thanks, Supreme Court in 2010. How would Republicans feel if DeSantis treated the 2nd amendment in the same way? How many gun-loving bureaucrats’ heads would explode [like the Disney World fireworks show]!
