There was a law on the books that didn’t allow it so no reason to speak out against something that is already not allowed."But why didn't you speak up about it before now?"
Isn't that the standard we're applying? Any opinion someone expresses, you get to clap back at them "tHeN wHy DiDnT yOu SaY sOmEtHiNg AbOuT iT yEaRs AgO!!!!!?"
The Florida Legislature should be getting their paychecks from the DeSantis campaign rather than the taxpayers at this point.Sure, but I just find it funny to casually change the law right now. The timing is well…opportunistic.
I thought they were second, after Walmart.
The author is a conservative who actually supported the original legislation that Disney spoke out against, so his position is interesting. He's also a more traditional conservative (he falls in the Never Trump camp).
Thing is, if this gets to the supreme court, of the six Rwpublican-appointed justices, I see three of them as more "traditional conservative" - Roberts, Kavanaugh, and Barrett; one as libertarian - Gorsuch, and two as more radical and partisan - Alito and Thomas.
With the three Democrat appointed justices, I can see anywhere from a 5-4 decision in favor of Disney to a 7-2 decision. I can see an outside change of a 5-4 decision in favor of DeSantis, but only if all three progressives side with him, which I think is unlikely.
Interesting given that the state approved the plan.
They likely can't. Would require a constitutional amendment, I think.I don’t think they can pass a federal law to do what you’re asking.
Then are they not repealing this silly law entirely?And it won’t be the last I’m sure, depending on how many states have this in place. It’s a silly law. Doesn’t make sense to stop your state’s top leader from running, IMO. We wouldn’t really be talking about it if it were not for Ron’s silly disney fight.
The timing is part of what makes it retaliatory, though. I don’t really see how you can divorce the two.Correct.
The reason matters, the timing doesn't.
If the action was retaliatory, it was retaliatory regardless of when it took place relative to Disney's comments on the Parental Rights bill, and regardless of the timing in the governor's term.
If a brand new governor of Texas came in and said "I'm going to push for legislation on Day 1 to screw Tesla for something Elon Musk said in 1997," that's just as bad as what DeSantis did here.

Still largest single site in the US which is crazy and stuff you’d see at a Chinese iPhone factory as far as number of employees in one areaPublix - 225,00
Walmart - 116,559
WDW - 75,000
just saw a clip of DeSantis speaking and when asked about the Disney situation he said he’s not going to let a corporation control their own government and avoid taxes. Why continue stating something that is just a blatant lie?
No one reads past headlines or talking heads so it worksBecause ge can hold onto a sliver of truth that by having rcid do things they avoid owning it and paying their own taxes on it.
It’s one of those misleading points tied to a sliver of truth that serves the point of making something into something else
So Florida was actually better… until they weren’tTell that to the last several presidents prior to the last two, who kept their place as governor or senator. And a bunch of the losing candidates.
The timing serves as evidence that it is retaliatory. But you don’t need to introduce evidence on an issue if the other side admits it.The timing is part of what makes it retaliatory, though. I don’t really see how you can divorce the two.
Oh, I was talking from a WDWMagic-poster perspective, not a legal one!The timing serves as evidence that it is retaliatory. But you don’t need to introduce evidence on an issue if the other side admits it.

They just don’t want to be next.I still think it’s shocking the business community, the tourism community, and the theme park community have not spoken out at all about what has been happening. If the entire community rallied around Disney, it would send a very powerful message to Tallahassee. And frankly they should, the precedent being set can impact them one day.
