TBayXXXVII 2,482 Posted May 18, 2023 Looks like DeSantis is the front runner for Man of the Year. Trump is going to have a hard time defeating a hero to the U.S. The Leftists are triggered to a greater height than they were with Trump. They actually think Florida is upset that 2k leftists aren't moving into Florida. LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They actually think Florida is upset that 2k leftists aren't moving into Florida. LOL I don't think most radical leftists really understand DeSantis. He's not backing down. If his stances and positions cost him a chance at POTUS, he clearly doesn't care. He'll run for POTUS and see what happens. If doing what he believes won't help him win a general election, then it won't. The mistake people make with the woke mob and with those driving identity politics is they either apologize ( the worst mistake in public) or they back down and attempt to appease/compromise/supplicate to get something tangible out of it. DeSantis doesn't care if people like him or not. He's not worried about losing donors if it comes to it. He's not worried if The Big Mouse makes financial moves to try to hurt him or not. He won by damn near 20 points in his last reelection. He is in a strong position to last longer than Disney HQ can try to survive by going after him. A fair point to make is if this is just a full on blood grudge and if DeSantis has overreached with his gubernatorial powers here. That's a more than fair question at this point. Because it's more than just making a point, now it's for all out blood. That being said, Disney started this fight. And the impact is evident - More and more big companies are staying in their own lane. They might do some woke stuff in their marketing and commercials, but they aren't commenting on public policy anymore. Not most of them. Whatever people think of DeSantis, good or bad, I'd consider his actions incredibly brave. I actually don't agree with his stances on abortion. But if it's what he believes, he's willing to stand by it even though it would cost him badly in a general election for POTUS one day. Most people would cave on something like that. At least, for better or worse, it's authentic. I suppose, in the end, that would be totally foreign to the radical left - i.e. seeing something happen that appears to have some real authenticity to it. Don't get me wrong, DeSantis is a grifter like all other politicians at a baseline level, but at least he's not pretending to be a bubbly fun time happy go lucky centrist cardboard cutout if that's not what he values. I believe Nikki Haley would make a more than fine President in 2024, but I won't deny she sounds completely packaged and fake most of the time. She'll say what has to be said to appeal to the best "algorithm" that will get her votes. DeSantis represents what Americans used to be. Just defiant and refusing to budge on some pretty basic core concepts of actual freedom. I hope he wins the primary in 2024, otherwise with four more years of Biden, I'm pretty sure America will collapse otherwise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not having 2k leftists in the state to ruin the good things they have going down there outweighs any losses in money. I also think that Disney will still build it in 2 years after DeSantis is gone.

Disney has already incurred millions of dollars in expenses related to the project, including relocation costs for about 200 employees who have already moved to Florida from California. Mr. D’Amaro said in his note that the company would discuss options with those workers, “including the possibility of moving you back.” (It was not clear whether any of the people who quit rather than moved would have the chance to return to their jobs.)
