    You're not going to be happy when I throw all the "he has no plan" posts back in your face when this fizzles to nothing.

    This will fizzle into nothing when DeSantis drops the matter --- after the Disney lawyers educate him in reality.

    What has fizzled is the wokeness from Disney and its creepy employees
    and that was the objective from DeSantis...Thats the win....The policy may fail in court but the policy was a tool to help Disney get back on track

    I still don't think its going to go the way the NPC thinks/hopes - with Florida taxpayers footing the bill. What is more likely to happen (and I've said this before) is a negotiation with Disney to stay the hell out of politics (which they will beg to accept - they don't want this anymore) for some agreement. But you're correct, its got the woke bullshit to back off and that is the victory.

    You say this as Disney is about to kick off its largest Gay Pride Month celebration ever with One Magical Weekend from June 2nd to 6th. Don't really seeing the "wokeness' at Disney fizzling.

    I had no idea myself but apparently we are the best sandy beaches in the northeast and it generates an amazing amount of tourism. If you haven’t been to the Jersey shore lately you would be surprised. Long Branch and Asbury Park are upscale locales etc. Things have really changed from when I was a kid. But yes to the point little NJ does tourism numbers as big as Florida.

  9. Does that mean the GOP returning or turning down all those political campaign donations they made to DeSantis and all the other candidates by Disney or participating in politics is acceptable as you or DeSantis deems fit? I was going to have my company make a campaign contribution and I need to know who I need to ask permission?

    The constitution says freedom of speech but stay out of politics?

    Are you saying a corporation will enter into an agreement with the government to restrict its first amendment rights in exchange for lifting of a punitive measure? What copy of the constitution do you work off of?

  10. Is that objectionable that Disney is having a Gay Pride celebration or should gays be hidden and removed from society? Since when is woke being open and accepting of customers from all backgrounds.. They are not forcing you to suck a dick to enter the park.
