Walt Disney Makes Its Boldest Anti-DeSantis Threats Yet
The Mouse House has made it very clear that it’s not going to back down because of the right-wing governor’s threats.
Walt Disney never wanted a war with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. The right-wing political leader, however, went after the biggest single-site employer in his state after its former CEO Bob Chapek made a statement criticizing DeSantis’ so-called “don’t say gay” legislation.
Hundreds (321 in total) of other companies have signed a petition from the Human Rights Campaign that broadly condemns anti-LGBTQ legislation, but those companies did not specifically call out DeSantis. So, the governor — in a move that plays to his political base — has made a bunch of petty moves against Walt Disney (DIS)
