Ron Desantis is ruining the state of Florida with his bigotry toward LGTQ, people of color (mostly black) and women who seek abortions. He is driving residents, tourist and business out of Florida. This country will be set back 100+ years if he should become president.
Florida has a positive population growth. Tourism is at a peak. Florida has a surplus budget so businesses are thriving. Please read – it is educational.
Hope you know Florida couldn’t handle over 75k people signing up for unemployment. Besides that, I am very comfortable living where I do. Home paid for, food on table and thanks to Disney for helping me to obtain my lifestyle with that paycheck each week!
Any state would welcome Disney . De Santis & his over inflated ego will cost us Floridians a much loved Entertainment we’ve enjoyed for years . I say get rid of De Santis & keep Mickey Mouse
Disneyland under fascist California Governor Newsome was closed for over a year.
Under pro-business Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, Walt Disney World was closed for a few months.
Bob Iger should be thanking DeSantis for Florida Disney Parks profits during the pandemic while California Disney Parks lost millions of dollars.
Bob Iger has spent the last 15 years destroying the Walt Disney Company with failed projects, failed movies, failed streaming services, over priced acquisitions, destruction of purchased IP’s, decade of decreased merchandise sales, bloated executive staff, extreme debt and stock devaluation. Michael Eisner was right about Bob Iger that Bob would not be a creative executive and that Michael would be the last creative CEO of WDC.
You are 1000% correct ! Let the mouse get used by California politicians and their agendas ! Walt Disney has had a free ride here in Florida for every , now they need to step up pay their share , wait until they go to CA !
oh homey. WDW is the BIGGEST employer in FL. They pay more in taxes per year in FL than the following 5 companies below them combined. Publix is the only other employer in FL that pays slightly more in TAXES.
@Pocho Villa, well it’s a Santa’s opened up Florida it’s not for the reasons that you believe and assured isn’t for the reason that he said it was, namely freedom. If you follow Florida state tax revenues in the first part of 2020, Florida lost 29% of its revenue. In a state that relies on sales tax (making up about 85% of Fl ‘s revenue) because there is no state income tax and over 90% of Corporations do not pay corporate income tax themselves, DeSantis was faced Florida going broke. He paid out over $500M in corp tax refunds, cut a$1B in tge state budget amd opened up Florida businesses understeer guise of Freedom. You can do your own research and validate anything that I said and you’ll see that I’m correct.
Moving to another state would bring thousands of employees without work. Orlando lives off those who visit the park, businesses, hotels, etc. would also be affected.
Good bye Disney. I which you would move out of Florida and then maybe we wouldn’t have to deal with all these entitled tourist that come down here. Most people I know that work there would not go there on there days off . Any more you have drinks and fights and over priced food and drinks.
Florida would be a sorry ass state without it’s “entitled tourists” who bring in billions so that you can live in Florida, think again you miserable c**
Those tourists are what keeps our taxes down. No state taxes for us and it’s because of them. Stop and think before you trash our tourists. They help us way more than u know
Florida is not full of haters. Maybe not everyone agrees with you, but that doesn’t make someone a hater. Do you live in Florida? If not, you can’t really speak to this. If you do, you have the freedom to move.
Descant is is slowly destroying this beautiful state! He needs to stop trying to win votes and he needs to LEAVE, not Disney.
It’s going to cost the tax payers too much money and no way to keep the tourists!!
To pay California taxes versus no tax Fl because you don’t like the Governor is not fiscally responsible. Shows why Disney is in trouble in the first place.
Disney paid $1.146 billion in state and local taxes in Florida last year alone. I don’t know where you people get your info on them not paying taxes in Florida but they do and it is all in public records.
Ron de “Satin” want be Florida governor forever. I think Disney should stay. Don’t let Satin run you away. Hold your ground. Disney is right where it should stay. This too shall pass.
You speak of morals and common sense which leads to God and his teachings. Might I remind you of God saying to not judge. You teach your morals to your children and let others allow teach what they want. I’m the end that’s between them and God.
The only organizations that have been proven to be filled with Child groomers, abusers, and rapists are the over 4000+ Priests and clergy of the Catholic Church
I agree, that CHURCHES need to leave EVERY state in the union.
Who cares. Disney sucks anyways. Over priced food, drinks ,and tickets. Only one or two decent rides at each park. The waits for rides sucks. Disney isn’t that great.
What does everyone “actually” expect here? For over 50 years, Disney has generated overwhelming tourism and revenue for this state, and this Goofball governor is risking all of it for his own political agenda. It’s sickening. DeSantis needs to be voted out of Florida!
He will be termed out of the governorship after this term is over so he won’t have to be voted out. He just needs to be stopped from getting the presidential nomination now.
First, Disney axed the so called billion dollar project a few years back and made it official this year. Second, Disney should never had gotten involved in Florida politics, lets remember it was them who called out De Santis over the bill to keep children safe from sexual teachings contrary to their parents belief. Disney World isn’t going anywhere, that would be a fiscal disaster for them. California would be great for the new Woke Disney expansion, maybe they’ll even get a tax break, LOL.
I live in Florida and hope Disney moves to California that is truly a free state where creativety can thrive and not be suppressed by an authoritarian and his biases.
DeSantis will ruin Florida. People are delusional if you believe his policies will do anything other than destroy the state. He doesn’t care about Florida or its people. He only cares about power and his rising grip on it. Don’t cry when he continues to make you look foolish.
Invest in your home state, California. Let the ‘good’ governor of Florida lose billions of dollars for his state because he is on a power trip and has stepped way the heck out of line. The Disney Company needs to invest right here at home or at the very least in this country.

Wish Disney would stay in FLA but do not blame them Desantis has over reached his power and as far as president that a joke

Youre not originally from Florida are you?

AGREED!!!
Eddie
It is Disney and it’s pricing that are afecting floridians,not the De Santis. We need the Walt Disney Comp to get back to its roots!
J gilmer
I second that. Remove DeSantis, but NOT to the Presidency. Holy Moly, what would he do with that office. 🥹😬
John
I know it would cost too much money to move but get out of Florida so the magic can return to Disney for the people.

Pandemic Profits???
Disney Parks lost 2.1 Billion Dollars during the pandemic. Try again!
Tom
But not in Florida
California
Paris Hong Kong
Shanghai all closed
Florida open
Damian
Florida will close because of a dictator of a governor.
Gooze
They made money with the Florida parks during the pandemic period… it was the other Disney venues that mostly contributed to the loss.
That said, I wish both DeSantis and Disney would get out of these political and or social issues with the parks.
Jack Pasquella
Well said…..

I agree! I wonder if we could get a straight pride month???

Every month is STraight pride. YOu just want to have a way to express your bigotry,

Lots of folks who went to Disney world when DeSantis kept them from closing won’t ever go there again. They died from COVID

You are a negative person and you don’t need to be here.

Take Mickey and all the letters with him/her/it. Our Governor is fighting to keep our kids normal. Newsom probably had a ball at pride night.
Dani
Kids will be kids, but you homphoboic bigots need to disappear.
Steve
As they generally travel in pairs, he had at least two, if not dozens of balls. 😁
Jack Pasquella
Take the politics out of Disney!

Spot on!
MJ Dembecki
Disney should have kept its mouth shut. A move to CA will make a visit even more unaffordable.
Sue
Good bye Disney. I which you would move out of Florida and then maybe we wouldn’t have to deal with all these entitled tourist that come down here. Most people I know that work there would not go there on there days off . Any more you have drinks and fights and over priced food and drinks.
Zara
Florida would be a sorry ass state without it’s “entitled tourists” who bring in billions so that you can live in Florida, think again you miserable c**

I like DeSantis but he needs to leave Disney alone!
Disney is good for Florida and if Disney gets out of politics good for the Kids and Family!
Dani
this proves you know nothing about politics.
Cheryl C
Get out! Even when DeSantis is gone his actions will last. Florida is full of haters. That won’t change with change of governors
Jk
Florida is not full of haters. Maybe not everyone agrees with you, but that doesn’t make someone a hater. Do you live in Florida? If not, you can’t really speak to this. If you do, you have the freedom to move.

Sounds like they will fit in well in CA. I guess if he becomes president, they’ll have to leave the country!!!
DJ Rhine
I’d love for Walt Disney World to stay in Florida but DeSantis may have ruined that for all of us.

Keep your disgusting child grooming out of FL. Many with morals and common sense will never support anything Disney again.

WRong. They announced the billion dollar project at the beginning of 2020 (right before the pandemic).

No state taxes in Florida due to tourism, Disney leaves, tourist leave, jobs leave and state taxes return (Arizona)!
