The governor's job doesn't pay that much....
Still nicer to fly in and out of than MCO
If time wasn't an issue, flying into MIA and taking brightline to Orlando would be preferable to me than dealing with MCO.
If they had a lounge, then I'd say yes. But since I enjoy getting fitshaced for free before flying, then MIA is my preferred choice.

I don't have that kind of moneyOEA
For work travel, I do enjoy the Delta lounge quite a bit. But personal travel is generally on Jetblue or Southwest, because dad life, and there's no lounges near them.

Not if it’s “the will of the people.”

I agree with those who would raise an eyebrow at the idea that what DeSantis wants to be talking most about this as he launches a presidential bid is his legal battle with Disney. Does he really want to be standing on that stage announcing his candidacy and telling people to vote for him as the one leader who had the courage to take on Walt Disney World? I would think he'd want to be talking about the legislation he did pass that makes him look like an effective culture warrior, not a protracted and costly legal battle with Disney over their First Amendment rights that his legislation sparked and which could go either way.

Imagine if the governor did win and they had to put him in the Hall of Presidents.
I hope if that happens Disney would close it for a multiyear referb that would take his entire time in office. Then they could reopen with the next President and just have him sit and smile.

Except there aren’t just 2 parties. Independents make up more voters than either party has. In order to win in a national election you need to get the independent vote in swing states. Moving right of Trump won’t help and there’s no way to undo that now and pivot. The war chest needs to be refilled. He doesn’t have enough to finish the primaries let alone the general election. Donors are key to his viability and that well is starting to dry up.
You are also assuming that if DeSantis is the candidate MAGA Trump voters will back him, but they may just stay home. Ask Hillary how that works out. She really felt the Bern.

I agree with this. The Disney feud is 7-2 unsuited but if he folds then he will get blinded out. Going all in probably is his only play.

NO, Disney has the First Amendment right to say "Our goal as a company is for this law to be repealed by the legislature or struck down in the courts." Any retaliation for this statement is Desantis illegally retaliating against Disney. There is no backpedaling that. There is no condoning that. There is no blaming Disney for making Constitutionally protected speech.
Not sure what survey you are quoting but the Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll from 10 days ago is quite different.
And the USA Today Survey from March 8 finds 56% of Americans think "Woke" is a good thing, including 50% or Republicans. So please do not make these statements as facts when they are incorrect.
They don’t HAVE to do anything.

Disney is not one of the most liberal companies in the US. They’re one of the most moderate ones, following social norms once they’re deemed acceptable by mainstream Americans not before.
The fact that they still sell an idea of American exceptionalism and turn other countries into caricatures of themselves shows how conservative they still are
They would still have to get him to agree to recite a speech. I don’t think he will.
