Kevin McCarthy Urges Ron DeSantis to End Disney Feud
Newsweek via MSN ^ | 27 Apr 23 | Aila Slisco

Posted on 04/28/2023 4:39:56 AM PDT by Erik Latranyi

Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy has joined a growing list of Republicans urging Florida Governor Ron DeSantis to reel in his crusade against Disney.

McCarthy said during a Thursday interview on CNBC's Squawk Box that DeSantis should attempt to "sit down and negotiate" with Disney instead of attempting to wage a legal battle against the company. The governor has been publicly feuding with the company since last year, when it publicly criticized his "Don't Say Gay" law, which restricts classroom discussion on sexual orientation and gender identity.

After legal maneuvering by Disney thwarted an attempt to revoke the company's self-governance agreement last month, DeSantis suggested that he could retaliate against the company by building a "state prison" next to the Walt Disney World resort. McCarthy said on Thursday that the proposal was not "the best idea," while also pointing out that Disney is one of Florida's largest employers.

"Why wouldn't you sit down and negotiate and talk?" McCarthy said of the governor's feud with Disney. "If there's differences, you can always find ways that you can solve this problem. If you think that the only action is to go to court, I believe that's wrong."

"This is a big employer inside Florida," he added. "I think the governor should sit down with them. I don't think the idea of building a prison next to a place that you bring your family is the best idea. I think it'd be much better if you sat down and solved the problems."

The deep state wants De Santis to lose. If he doesn’t stand up to woke culture, he will.

The Trump-endorsed McCarthy never had a spine. He was forced by real conservatives to give them a few issues (like releasing the Jan 6 tapes).

On this, he can return to his spineless self and stand with his master, Trump, who took tens of millions from Disney and wants tens of millions more....so they all throw cold water on DeSantis’ efforts to stop groomers.

You see, for Trump and his RINO supporters in the GOP, grooming is not as important as fundraising.

Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy has released Jan 6 tapes
to ONLY help the Pelosi family.

All other portions remain secret.

HINT: Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy cannot be trusted.

I so love DeSantis. If the world has a satan problem, govt ignoring it will only accelerate the collapse. Govt getting along IS NOT A SOLUTION.

We need to clone DeSantis minded folk and fight the biggest battle of all time.

We finally get a cultural battle we can win, and the RINO cowards begin to howl.

“Kevin McCarthy Urges Ron DeSantis to End Disney Feud”

Now what? Does DeSantis do as ordered, or does DeSantis stand up to the GOP Donor Class? We shall see.

Let's get some FACTS straight:

Yes, DeSantis took money from Disney in 2018. But he turned on Disney knowing full well that he would not get another dime from them.

Trump, on the other hand, took tens of millions from Disney in 2020 and now defends Disney because Trump is bought and paid for.

Same with Anheuser-Busch. Trump took money from them and then sent his son out to end the boycott because Trump wants more donations from them.

Trump is a RINO sellout. His RINO buddies in the GOP, like McCarthy, McDaniel, etc do not care about grooming, just fundraising.

Do you comprehend the difference in the position of governor and president…

I personally would not shed a tear if the state of Florida closed Mickey world. What I find contemptuous is this deception that the take over attempt had one darn thing to do with ending grooming..

Deception is the game.

Since when did RINO McCarthy become our governor in Florida? Hours about STFU and release the January 6 tapes and let Desantis run the state as he was elected to do. Also why does Kevin McRino feel the need to meddle into this issue with Disney? Is he beholden to Disney somehow? Will there be more dirt coming out on him where he’s been to pedo island, or he takes his boyfriend Frank Luntz to space mountain?
