The DeSantis gambit

[dudalb]

Isn't he still popular within the state?

Yes, but a governor can only serve two consecutive terms in FLorida. He cannot run in 2026. He could again in 2030 but I no one in Florida history has pulled that off.

I'm sure DeSantis is exploring ways to change the Florida constitution to give him more consecutive terms.

As an aside, “the mouse” was a cute little nickname the first few times it was used…back in 1981.

Don't give him ideas.

You think the character will be dressed wearing an SS uniform or maybe just DeSantis's imperial wizard costume from his local Klavern? And considering this is the Deep South, it just might help ticket sales.

An SS woman's uniform, most likely.

The parts of the state which his party allows to vote, maybe.

Why not just declare himself Governor for life and be done with it. His rupper stamp legislature would go along with whatever Dear Leader wants.

As an aside, "The Mouse" has been the common Nickname for Disney in the film industry for a long,long, time.

Well, we here are not in the biz, but even if I were David O. Selznick and you were Vivian Leigh, the nickname would still be cutesy* by several powers.


*Maybe even…cheesy! *shot to the rim*

He us term limited in Florida.

Uh... yeah. That's really not much of a troll. I don't think Ron cares.

I don't really have a dog in this fight. Ron and Disney are both evil IMHO. Ron's problem is that the GOP isn't buying it, his target audience. He's doing this to get to be president but he's looking like a loser.

It is a freedom of speech issue.

Disney is evil? Snow White, Beauty and the Beast and the Jungle Book?

Or is it Star Wars, Indana Jones and the Pirates of the Caribbean?

That would be an interesting crossover film. Might invigorate both franchises!



I think your post would benefit from an Oxford comma.

People have criticized Disney before... It's efforts to expand copyright protection, the concentration of media "power" under one company, it's live-action remakes (seen as an example of a lack of creativity)...

If they weren't the target of the attacks by meatball Ron Deathsentence, people would just as likely to see them as villains rather than the hero's that they currently appear to be.

Deserving criticism doesn’t exactly make them evil.

I mean my whole view of Disney versus DeSantis is basically "let them fight." Disney at least doesn't have a hate on for a particular group of people.

And Disney didn't downplay the threat from COVID-19 and mock children for wearing masks during the pandemic.
