Ron DeSantis is escalating his war with Walt Disney, threatening to tax its hotels and impose tolls on the roads leading into its theme parks as the Florida governor doubles down in his battle against 'woke' culture.

'Come hell or high water, we’re going to make sure that policy of Florida carries the day. And so, they can keep trying to do things.

“I honestly hope DeSantis stays in Florida and finishes this fight instead of running against Trump”

I’ll second that!
DeSantis is the model governor the country needs.
Trump is the experienced President the world needs.
