Ron DeSantis’ Disney fumble is rapidly making him a national punchline

Seasons ebb and flow just like tidewater. That’s the nature of the world. But as seasons change, one thing remains permanent. As Summer hovers meltingly overhead, drenching us in sunlight, Disney celebrates. As Autumn moves in, with the smell of freshly cut grass and colorful leaves — Disney still parties on.

As winter roars in, snowflakes gently fall, and cool winds blow — And Disney goes on. As spring rushes in, orange blossoms, aglow, and lilacs sprouting, Disney continues its festivities. This is because Disney is an unbroken spirit. Nobody can break them — much as Ron DeSantis has tried.

And Ron had best be careful. Because Disney has been in Florida for years. But many a state has seen the controversy and have seen Ron DeSantis doing his best to make Disney’s life as miserable as possible. And some states sense of an opportunity — like North Carolina.

A North Carolina Senator has filed legislation. This legislation, called “Mickey’s Freedom Restoration Act,” seeks to lure Disney and its mouse away from Florida to North Carolina. They seek $750,000 to do just that.

State senator Michael Garrett is the one who did this, and he says: “Politicians who put their state’s economy at risk to boost their own selfish political ambitions are a liability.”

Ouch! This isn’t the first time this has happened. In 2022, Governor Jared Polis of Colorado warmly invited Disney to relocate to Colorado, saying the state was ready for “Mountain Disneyland.”

I love seeing our states leap to the aid of Disney and Mickey. Now, obviously, Disney is not going anywhere for now. They will likely be staying in Florida. But they don’t HAVE to. Unlike the miserable Florida governor, Disney has options. Ron DeSantis, were he not so stupid would recognize that.

So if he persists in his idiotic threats like building prisons next door to Disney (what a jerk!) Disney — someday, sometime, just might take North Carolina or another state up on their gracious offer.

And that would undoubtedly sink DeSantis in such a way that he could never come back. This should be a warning to the joyless governor; however, given that he’s Ron Desantis — which means — not too swift on the uptake, this advice will likely go in one Ron-ear and out the other.
