    You will ruin the state! Go ruin the country with your cooked politics. You are right up there with Nixon!!
    You believe your way or the high way!

    1. Thelma

      Why is DeSantis trying to ruin an amazing vacation park just for his own ego. The people that support him have problems

      1. Leo

        He’s a jackass.

        1. Jan

          Hey gov. Move out! Disney wins. Bye bye

          1. Robert Lynn

            Don’t you have more important issues to help Florida voters than fight with mouse or are you attacking them because maybe you were traumatized by the mouse. Hope you lose

          2. sam lyons

            Beware of DeSantis. He has all the characteristics of a two-bit DICTATOR.

        2. robert reddy

          I really hope people begin to realize that he is a power hungry individual and blow him off his bed for presidency

      2. Arlene

        I just wish that he would put this much effort into the Florida Public Schools. He Needs to take walks through some of the Florida Public Schools. See why there are so many C & D Schools. See why there is such a Huge Teacher Shortage.

      3. Carat

        I think the people of Florida need to stop him and defend Disney! He has gone way to far! So sick of his crazy A–

    2. Jacqueline

      Beyond all the political b*******. I don’t think anybody’s thinking about the thousands of people that will be out of work. What it will do to the economy of Florida, the reason we don’t have state tax. I am so disgusted by his selfish actions that will devastate the state of Florida!

    3. VICKYSOULES

      Agree whole heartedly l

  2. From the start Mr. Desantis, these threats against Disney World have given me a bad feeling toward you Mr. Governor. Anyone running for the presidency of the United States, I would think would “never” threaten one of our beloved institutions!

    1. Chris Barry

      If he thinks this makes him a good presidential candidate, he is delusional! Shows what a petty, little man he is!

      1. Diane

        I hope Disney wins their suit against him BIG TIME! I think it should be both against the state AND him personally.

        1. susan M

          I think only he and his followers should be fined. The rest of us know the importance of Disney World. Little children dream of the big day, and you want to take that away. If Disney leaves the state so much tourism goes!

  3. Howard

    Petty endeavors such as this have no place in Presidential Candidates, just lost my vote!

  4. MAGA

    RINO Ron showing his true fascist colors. You get what you pay for.

  5. Marc

    RINO Ron showing his true fascist colors. You get what you pay for.

  6. Henry

    What a piece crap this guy is. What he’s doing to the largest tax payer in the state.I hope he is banned form The Magic kingdom for the rest of his life.

    1. Patty

      I am sick and tired of Desantis saying Disney is disrespecting the voters of Florida. Myself and many other Floridians are disgusted with the revengeful evil behavior of our governor! A perfect example of a classic Narcissist. Beware America!
      Do not send this autocrat to Washington if you value your freedoms and Democracy!

  7. Sheila

    Disney should just pack up and move out of Florida Disney brings so much money to this state from tourists this governor doesn’t no what he’s getting his self into

  8. Mike

    Little dictator wannabe “a-holeini” has ended his political career over his miscalculated vindictiveness toward a beloved American Institution. Not only is it a testament to his fragility as a leader to need to: “show Disney” who bravely stood up for its LGBTQ employees, fans and fellow Floridians . We have a new mantra: it is no longer the “don’t say gay” law it is the ” don’t say Desantis” campaign slogan. Nice work a-holini. Nice work.

  9. CT

    Cutting off his nose in spite of his face!
    Wants to keep his control of governor while running for president so he can pass legislation on that too. Dictatorship ! Vote him out!!

  10. Lynn

    DeSantis is a disgrace on so many levels. He is systematically ruining Florida. His hate filled “bills” signed in secret are red flags as to his dictatorship type of leadership. Keep Disney oust DeSantis

  11. Cheryl C

    DeSantis is waging a war he can’t win. He’ll be gone in a few years and Disney will still be there. This Florida is not the Florida Walt settled on all those years ago. 🙄

  12. jose melendez

    You efffn moron the people aren’t with you on this. Stop behaving live a child and let it go(frost voice).

  13. tom farrell

    DeathSantis you don’t screw with the mouse.

  14. Kathleen

    Does that mean “The Governor’s Marriage is a Null, Because He got married at Disney Wedding Pallivon in 2009, Stayed at Grand Floridian Resort?

  15. Kathleen

    So if Govern is attacking Disney all the time “Does that mean the “Govern’s Marriage is a Null,since he got married in 2009 at Disney’s Wedding Pallivon stayed at Grand Floridian Resort?

    1. Rick TR

      You make absolutely no sense.

  16. Sandra

    Dear Ronnie,
    Aren’t you the one sticking your finger in the eye of the voter?

  17. N. Spayne

    There’s so many things wrong in Florida. They all point to the neglect by the Governor. The one thing right is Disney, highest paying taxpayer, largest tourist attraction bringing in revenue to the state and largest employer providing jobs in a state which is mismanaged. Deathsantis’s ego and pride have grown exponentially along with his new founded hatred toward his former ally Trump. He’s the epitome of the anti-Christ in government. He’s truly bordering on anti constitutional rights to silence anyone or anything that might disagree with his own personal biases. Florida needs a new leader. The Country would be in dire straits and setback decades if he were to ever be allowed in the power seat.

    1. Dan

      I too am tired of the feud. Can you please show me the constitutional rights for a corporation to have its own taxing authority?

  18. John Michael Rondello

    Hope the people are smart enough to vote this idiot out of any office he is aspiring to. He doesn’t realize (or doesn’t care about) the damage he’s inflicting on Florida – and God forbid, on our great nation as a whole – all because he didn’t get his way. Like some impudent 5 year old having a hissy fit. Grow up, or get out of governing (if you ever “governed” at all) forever!

  19. Rick

    Totally agree with you. Desantis is a corrupt authoritarian who’s purpose is to destroy democracy for his own self serving narcissistic tendencies.

    1. Nancy Fairbanks

      Now he is acting like Trump. Throwing a fit because he’s not getting his way. Just because Disney stopped campaign donations and exercise their right to free speech. I would have voted for him before he started his vendetta, but not now.

      1. Debbie

        You are so right!

      2. Susan

        👍

    2. Angel Olivieri

      As a veteran and retired school teacher, I am shocked that this dictator has people supporting him. Our CIA removed this type of politician from several other countries and now we have one in Florida.

      1. 100%agree

      2. Travis Althar

        Hey the guy did a lot for us throughout the pandemic but this thing with Disney I can’t support.

        1. Lennie

          Actually, what he did for you during the pandemic was ignore the pandemic, resulting in many deaths—not just in Florida, but back to homes where the vacationers returned. Glad you didn’t die, but this jackass is responsible for untold numbers of Covid deaths. He also raised the home of the woman who was reporting the numbers and severity of the crisis. He is a dictator bully.

    3. Susan Delaney

      I totally agree DeSantis said Disney us going against the Florida voters but I am a Florida voter since 1985 and we have never voted on anything Disnet not once as usual he’s only taking about himself

    4. You are so right!

    5. M. Ernst

      DeSantis is a looser. He is petty and dictatorial and he is diminishing the the image and status of the State of FL. We are becoming the laughing stock of the nation. Start taking care of the state and leave your ego at the door. This is my Florida respect us.

      1. Lennie

        I used to visit Florida once or twice a year. Now I will never again visit until they have sane leadership. Also, too dangerous down there with the gun frenzy.

    6. Bob Forsyth

      F#$k Desantis. As well as his kiss ass legislators that do what ever he asks.

    7. Carmen

      A dictator he is!

  20. Arnold

    This contest is likely to come to a lose-lose conclusion. It seems to me rather that a courtroom battle and running public tit for tat battle neither of which reflect well upon the Governor, he’d invite Disney to a summit in which the two sides could engage in more adult like conversations and decide a mutually beneficial path forward.

  21. Dan

    Nowhere in this article did I see where the governor “vowed to end Disney in Florida “.
    I do think it’s time to move forward from this feud though.

  22. Koko

    Agree 💯
    Bye Desatan

  23. Philip Anderson

    Are you seeing a pattern yet ? The party of “less government”, has become a party that uses the full weight of government to punish anyone daring to disagree. DeSantis claims Disney is “sticking their thumb in the eye of the voters”, as if the only voters who matter are the voters who support DeSantis. I’m a voters too, and I support the largest employer in Florida. DeSantis looks vindictive, petty, and small. Not presidential, by any metric.

    1. Robert Lynn

      Don’t you have more important issues to help Florida voters than fight with mouse or are you attacking them because maybe you were traumatized by the mouse. Hope you lose

    2. Carmen

      You can say that again!

  24. Ron

    Right on

  25. Bob

    Good, take down the house of mouse and put them in their place. All of the left-freak companies need to worry about their shareholders and stay out of politics. The goal is to make money not give a crap about feelings and some freaks, who don’t even make up 1% of the population.

    1. Manny

      Russian bot Bob has had his say. Thank you for sowing your purposeful division.

      It is only hoped that the money you garner doing this serves to guard your health in the future.

      Karma is that lady who in the end will put down her cup and say, “Oh really? Here is your consequence.”

    2. Kim

      So you want to pay much higher taxes? So dumb..

  26. Bill Smith

    I wonder if the people sticking up for Disney and not for Florida and it’s Governor thinks mickey mouse is real

  27. Autumn

    It’s going to be the taxpayers stuck with paying millions of dollars in the end. See it for what it is…

  28. LaRaine

    Leave Disney alone. DeSantis step down and give up your dictatorial stance over the people. You are wrong headed.

  29. Thomas

    I cannot understand how the governor has the power to put Florida in danger of losing a major part of our tourism income that most florida small business owners depend on regardless of weather our business is in Orlando or Tampa Bay area people travel to many destinations while on vacation.all to try to even the score.i don’t think it is right to run for president and hold a governor position At the same time or any political position what so ever just isn’t right

  30. Jill

    It’s going to be our tax dollars and more costs going up because of this. Too much , Governor DeSantis is going too far with this battle of Disney!

  31. Jon

    How about focusing on real issues facing Floridians.

  32. Kurt

    Such a sad little man. Disney will be around a lot longer than DeSatin. Two words: Term Limits!

  33. Lynn

    If Ron cares so much for Florida how about going after the Church of Scientology that is not a church at all l!They pay no federal taxes at all! The citizens of Florida are paying more taxes than ever before! Elderly people who are on a fixed income cannot afford to live in Florida with higher taxes and insurance rates! Leave Disney alone! They bring money from the tourist to Florida!

  34. M. Ernst

    DeSantis is a looser. He is petty and dictatorial and he is diminishing the the image and status of the State of FL. We are becoming the laughing stock of the nation. Start taking care of the state and leave your ego at the door. This is my Florida respect us.

    1. Malinda

      DeSantis wants to be a dictator. Please people we need to get him out of here before he destroys florida.

    2. Desantis is so narcissistic he is willing to spend taxpayers money to try and beat Disney!!
      I did read when he was in Japan he looked so stupid!! He had NO idea how to answer the questions ask to him! News reports say he acted so dumb and was a big embarrassment!!

      I travel to Florida to see my relative and stay a few months at a time I love the beaches etc It would be a shame if Disney would leave!!
      Desantis is acting like a child so he fights with Mickey Mouse however Disney is to powerful for Desantis!!

  35. John

    Nothing to do with Voters! It’s the GOP feelings. Triggered

  36. Matt

    Just wants people to lose there job. Why not leave it alone long as it works.

  37. Marie

    Desantis is acting like a little kid who doesn’t get his way. He wants control of everything. There are far more things that need taken care of in this state like the insurance problem. He doesn’t care about the citizens of the state and what lawsuits will cost us. It’s all about him.

  38. I agree. Regardless don’t vote for this edit.
    Disney is the most ethical company. Great to empires past and present. Helpful to all in it’s environs! I worked there when my mom died they gave me and my husband 6 week’s leave to help us. I’m sure there are many other stories like mine and many more experiences I had there that were so helpful to callers.

    1. Employees not empires.

  39. Marty

    Desantis is such a Dictator. He even changed the right of a govenor to run for President or Vice President without giving up his governorship unless he wins. What a D….!

  40. G

    Do the American people want this quality of a human being within proximity of the nuclear football? I think not. We have a voice at the polls, use it!

  41. Jerry

    It’s time to send DeSantis out of Florida before he tears it apart any further. He is worse than Trump’s dictatorship. Floridians need to get Florida back to a purple State so the people have a voice and representative debates.

  42. Lynn

    I am so sorry I voted for DeSantis. I think he is acting like a child throwing a tantrum. I enjoy going to Disney and I don’t want it to go away. It brings money to Florida. If this is the way he handles things I am certainly not wanting him for President of the United States. He is turning into a dictator. And if he doesn’t like what you do then he is going to bring you down.

  43. Robin

    Disney should apologize and say they also agree with protecting children from sexual predators in the schools. Watching all the fighting going on in the parks which by the way never use to happen, mean’s Disney hasn’t been good at policing the parks any more too.

  44. R

    Disney needs Florida more then Florida needs Disney. BTW get a life

  45. NOLaPrincess

    Noooooo OOOnneee Sucks like Desatan… Starts BS like Desatan.. tries to take away 1st amendment rights like Desatan..

    Seriously, leave Disney alone bro.

  46. Susan

    👍

  47. Marty

    The governor is a power hungry, right wing blowhard. Leave the House to f Mouse alone, or lose the park to another more deserving state.

  48. Right. Again, the governor of the “free state of Florida” is into suppression of free speech and healthcare rights. But seriously, buy and use all the guns you like without training or permits. And don’t forget to ban books. Terrible priorities.

  49. Tony Wagner

    What a pathetic loser. Complete lack of anything that slightly resembles leadership or even commonsense. Hopefully even a state as backwards as Florida will crush this guys career in the next election.

  50. Tony

    What a pathetic loser. Complete lack of anything that slightly resembles leadership or even commonsense. Hopefully even a state as backwards as Florida will crush this guys career in the next election.

  51. Bill

    Desantis is a crybaby governor who wants his way. President, not a chance

  52. David Conner

    I can’t believe no one has created a meme of Ron Desantis sounding like a Seal. “The possibilities ARE ARE ARE endless!” He said referring to building a prison next to the magic kingdom.

  53. Robert Shaw

    You are not passing laws for the people you are railroading your personal logic on the rest of your state you will not get away with it people like you don’t belong in power you don’t get the concept that you represent all the people in your state not just the ones you like

  54. John Swaufield

    There goes this egomaniac again, thinking that Florida is his little Kingdom. Get a real job, dictator has been used before.

  55. Tracy Disney fan

    I agree totally agree. It is all about the power with him. Go suck it DeSantis
    .
    This is a great way to lower the tourism to Florida. This does not just affect Disney it will also lower all the vendors sales in FL. These people depend on the people who will come to FL for Disney. Way to mess with all of the vendors of FL and Disney.

  56. DKC

    Go to California and take Disney with you. Our Governor stays meatheads.

  57. Jersey

    The blueprint for DeSantis has been followed by tyrants allowed to go in checked. The legislature and judicial branches have been designed to CHECK any absolute power grab by a tyrant. DeSantis wraps himself in the flag of Florida or America and hammers anyone or institution voicing opposition. Florida residents ought to start a RECALL effort on his election. He was not elected to be a tyrant or traitor to America’s true values.
