It's only "too aggressive" when a conservative does it. The democrats do this all day long and no one seems to care.

Sorry, OP. I would love to live in the world you think exists, but the fact of the matter is that the leftists have never once failed to use their majorities to push an agenda. That can not be defeated with pacifism. The only solution is pushing back when and where we can

---

I'll start by pointing out that I've voted R my whole life except for once. And I do get out and vote.

But to say the Dems do this is a twist on the truth. They attack political rivals but they don't attack private companies. They may voice opinions, but I haven't seen them leveling policy against targeted private companies to score political points in a culture war.

Wow. Wake the **** up. Seriously.

He's so amusing when he posts stuff like that.

Then you look at his posting history and, as you can see just in THAT post, he defends the Dems...and then he ONLY criticizes Republicans...

Kinda odd for a "Republican" to only put down Republicans and praise Democrats...

It's almost as if the claim of being a "Republican" isn't true...

---

I don't care whether you believe me or not. It's as true as true can be. If we talked more about the economy and less about culture wars, you'd see me agreeing a lot more.

---

DeSantis talks about economic issues quite a bit as well and he's a solid conservative on that front, all you have to do is look at Florida with a booming economy, low taxes and more tax cuts, and a large surplus to see how he has been doing there.

As I understand it, Florida's deal with Disney allowed them to operate on their own grid without the government interfering with their operations and giving them a tax-light runway to run wild in the open market. That's damn near lese faire capitalism, so I'm not sure how it could be the "antithesis" of capitalism.

Rabbit hole.

But one worth exploring.

Gulf Coast governors don't **** with the oil patch. Why would they? They are bright red governors in bright red states and their bread is buttered by a bright red industry. Disney's deal with Florida probably pales in comparison to the state rolled red carpet that runs from Baytown to Pensacola.

A governor would never get messy with those protections. It would be political suicide to threaten the golden goose that pays the bills in your home state. Unless it's Florida and not an energy company, and you care more about your national ambitions than the welfare of the state your are governing.

I argue that Ron Desantis doesn't give two ****s about Central Florida. Or Florida for that matter. Florida stabbing Disney will be a self-inflicted wound. And he will not care because he will be long gone one way or the other.

Disney was an easy target.

Wrong place, wrong time, Mickey Mouse.

Oil & Gas
Shutting down Christian adoption agencies.
Attacking a group of celebrate nuns for not providing (obviously unnecessary) birth control
Trying to remove immunity for gun manufacturers

And even then, most of the entities Ty to play along because they know they have to. Disney (and other leftist groups) intentionally refuse to play along with the local standard precisely BECAUSE they know they don't have to. The double standard is incredibly obvious

Most private companies don't target grooming kids.

FWIW I went down that path myself at one point. The Libertarian Party is a complete joke and would sell out every principle it has if it could ever have a chance at actually winning. Bill Weld? Dude makes Mitt Romney look conservative.

Pro-DeSantis but any politician trying to out maneuver a corporate titan with 'infinite' legal and lobbying resources like Disney on their own turf was going to be a losing proposition. You don't mess with the House of the Mouse.

I'll start by pointing out that I've voted R my whole life except for once. And I do get out and vote.

But to say the Dems do this is a twist on the truth. They attack political rivals but they don't attack private companies. They may voice opinions, but I haven't seen them leveling policy against targeted private companies to score political points in a culture war.

Blue diamond of LOLFail.

This is their bread and butter tactic

Wow. Wake the **** up. Seriously.

He's so amusing when he posts stuff like that.

Then you look at his posting history and, as you can see just in THAT post, he defends the Dems...and then he ONLY criticizes Republicans...

Kinda odd for a "Republican" to only put down Republicans and praise Democrats...

It's almost as if the claim of being a "Republican" isn't true...

---

I don't care whether you believe me or not. It's as true as true can be. If we talked more about the economy and less about culture wars, you'd see me agreeing a lot more.

---

DeSantis talks about economic issues quite a bit as well and he's a solid conservative on that front, all you have to do is look at Florida with a booming economy, low taxes and more tax cuts, and a large surplus to see how he has been doing there.

---

I wonder where all his posts of praise for DeSantis are...odd that they're not everywhere since DeSantis does so much pro-economy...

---

Poor half a glass of clean water. Then fill the rest with dirt. Would you still drink it?

---

Oh look. You criticizing a Republican again. And yet, praising Democrats on the the same thread.

With friends like you, Republicans don't need any more enemies...

---

Where did I praise a dem?

Thats not praise. To praise someone is to say they've done something good. Not to say they haven't done something bad.

---

You're 110% wrong in your assertion though, as shown through the thread.

Good for Governor DeSantis standing up to the CCP-aligned multi-billion dollar company sexualizing children.

What is this bananas obsession a segment of the Right has with labeling anything or anyone that is not in perfect alignment with their platform a communist and/or pedophile?

It's ****ing weird.

Also, spewing that bull**** is counterproductive. Reasonable people stop listening so you are drowning out any legitimate argument you may have had.

Disney is a CCP-aligned multi-billion dollar company happy to support/facilitate sexualizing children and the militant grooming GLBTQ agenda of the left.

You may be unaware of that but a simple search (not on something like google of course) would let you know some of the truth. Reasonable, informed people don't just toss out an accusation of 'bull****' about things they are just dismissively ignorant of.

What about that bakery that wouldn't sell cakes to gay couples?

Or that poor Mac repair shop guy who Hunter Biden stiffed?

Or Gibson's Bakery when they horribly refused to endorse shoplifting?

Or Tesla when Elon Musk deviated from the communist bylines with his twitter purchase (see thread: "Tesla is finished")?

Or even In-n-out Burger when they, gasp, donated $25K to the GOP?

Looks like DeSantis doesn't like to lose. He doesn't like being outsmarted so he's going to try again.

I know most in here will disagree, but I don't think this is a good look for him. This is bully behavior for a company having opinion. Win or lose, the battle was over, and now he's making it a war.

The Reedy Creek action could be written off as, "Oh they're just leveling the playing field, taking away benefits." But new taxes and toll roads would be pure punishment.

There's a line between aggressive and too aggressive, and I think any new action will cross that line. I don't see this going over well with independents and centrists. It's just going to make him look like a bully. This is precisely the sort of thing that would keep me from voting for him.

Disagree that it harms him politically. It shows that he isn't going to immediately roll over when the going gets tough. People that would really consider voting for him like that. The people who don't, like you, are the ones who wouldn't vote for him anyway regardless of what they say on a forum. I've found people will pontificate all kinds of things politically but when they stand in the voting booth they show who they really are.

You mean the one that was sued by the couple, not the state? I don't recall the government legislating against them.

this did not occur. he sold cakes to gay couples all the time, even the POS that made him take a case to supreme court

also wrong. the state did go after the baker. Colorado Civil Rights Commission was the plaintiff.

The state of Colorado definitely made the baker go to re-education camp.

You're nuts if you cannot see how the democrats wield govt power and bureaucracy against conservatives/Republicans.

Pro-DeSantis but any politician trying to out maneuver a corporate titan with 'infinite' legal and lobbying resources like Disney on their own turf was going to be a losing proposition. You don't mess with the House of the Mouse.

Tide has turned on corporate power. You will be subservient to the interest of government or you will become toast.

This is aligned along Rep/Dem voters. Corporations have aggregated and monopolized too much. You will find very few people, in either side of the spectrum, who think increased monopolization via mergers is a good social policy.

Doesn't mean they will agree on any target but corporations would do well to remember that they are creatures of law, and law can be changed.
