CitizenVectron Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 DeSantis threatens retaliation over Disney's attempt to thwart state takeover | CNN Politics WWW.CNN.COM Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Monday threatened to build a prison or a competing theme park near the Magic Kingdom or raise taxes on Walt Disney World to retaliate against the company for resisting a state takeover of its special taxing district. Quote Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Monday threatened to build a prison or a competing theme park near the Magic Kingdom or raise taxes on Walt Disney World to retaliate against the company for resisting a state takeover of its special taxing district. Quote Laying out his plan to exact retribution against the House of Mouse, the Florida Republican said the GOP-controlled state legislature will take steps to "formally nullify" Disney's attempts to maintain control of the district through last-minute maneuvering. Quote Later on Monday, DeSantis suggested the state might build a prison or its own theme park next door to Walt Disney World. "Come to think of it now, people are like, 'well, what should we do with this land?'" DeSantis said. "Maybe create a state park. Maybe try to do more amusement parks. Someone even said like, maybe you need another state prison. I mean, who knows? I mean, I just think that the possibilities are endless." Sane, rational politics.

PaladinSolo Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Imagine thinking saying you're looking into building a prison next to disney world is in any way a good response, lol. Guess they'd get nightly fireworks to watch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only that was the whole country's reaction. Yuckity yuck good old boys love crap like this. They are emotionally under developed man boys with a love for petty revenge and cheap attacks, and they are legion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reputator Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 This whole thing is especially hilarious after all the money WDW generates for the state. Something something to spite his face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kal-El814 Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Stupidity aside, isn't the whole "point" of Disneyworld for Disney the fact that they own enough land to keep the parks themselves separate from everything around them? What would building a prison "next to Disneyworld" even mean? Aren't there other theme parks in Orlando already? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a clown, sure, but for queer people in Florida he’s much closer to Pennywise. Shit is only getting scarier here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
