However that pot is now composed of oil and water and no matter how hard you try to mix it the result is it settles out to one layer of water and one layer of oil.
Throw in some lemon juice, a little soy sauce, and herbs and spices, then whisk well, and you get salad dressing. But you got to eat it quickly lest the ingredients separate again...

No matter which side you fall, it is democracy in action. It would be disingenuous to not give the president elect the same treatment that has been given to every president since the opening of the attraction. Put politics aside, Disney

The attraction did not open with the current president having a speaking role. It opened in 1971 and added Bill Clinton in 1993.

Are you trying to tell me that if Hillary Clinton had won in 2016, that she wouldn’t have had a speaking part? If Bill Clinton had a speaking part, Trump should have a speaking part. This has nothing to do with which political party I endorse, it’s fairness. If it were the other way around, I would be arguing the exact same thing. I’m a Libra.

This country was once know as the melting pot. However that pot is now composed of oil and water and no matter how hard you try to mix it the result is it settles out to one layer of water and one layer of oil. How things have changed and not for the better
One loves to stir the pot in this matter hence why our country is so divided but this is not new news.

By that logic the company can never change the attraction. Personally I expect they are going to update it, have Trump do the oath for a year or two and then quietly close it to be replaced by something else before we hit the 2028 cycle.

Also, Trump already had a speaking role when he was added in 2017. In fact, he was the last one to be able to give a speech. Biden was reduced to only the oath.

The thing with this election is that the winner already got that treatment 8 years ago. I’d rather see something new, and I think a lot of Disney fans would agree.

Hall of Presidents had a great run, but I really think the concept isn’t relevant anymore and it’s time for it to go.

We knew the entire Liberty Square concept is on the chopping block. IMO, yesterday's results will accelerate the change. It doesn't fit with the current mandates of recognizable Disney IP, and it isn't self-funding (Lightning Lanes). However, ultimately I don't think it will be Muppets, for the same reasons, even if that was a one-time potential path. I think the climate will make Disney even more risk adverse, so more likely to be a more popular or recognizable IP.

It's more that on one hand you would have had little girls seeing a female animatronic in the attraction for the first time. Inspiring a new generation. With the person who won ... it seems that this could become wildly controversial under the eyes of a company who re-themed SPLASH when no one was calling for it to go away in the first place.

But if they re-theme HOP, then they avoid the scandal of it all.

Seems like an easy win. Muppet Vision's days are numbered. The outcry over it's likely end was tremendous. HOP is sitting there with a new controversial headliner on the horizon ... all the while they need to find a new home for The Muppets.
So you dont want to answer my question. Got it lol. Fyi. The last person i want my daughter to be “inspired” by would be that woman. Maybe check her track record and history and then come back to me on that one

Are we allowed to acknowledge only for the oath for Biden? It's the same reason, Harris replaced Biden as the candidate. Moving forward, I'm good with the new President just saying the oath and leaving the speeches to Lincoln and Washington.

So... it's a "scandal" to refurbish HOP for the latest President. Got it. Look, I understand if Kamala won and the significance of the first female President just as with Obama being the first black President. But facts are facts and Trump was elected. It's not a "scandal" that he was the candidate that prevailed in a fair election. As for Splash and Tiana, both are their IPs and they can do what they want with them. Obviously, they wish one IP never existed.
