Governor Ron DeSantis emerged triumphant on Wednesday as Disney’s feeble attempt to sue him went up in smoke in federal court. That’s right, folks, “The Mouse” has been defeated!
From the very beginning, DeSantis has shown himself to be one step ahead of Disney. Yet, there were some delusional individuals on the right who dared to claim that this lawsuit meant DeSantis had “lost to Mickey Mouse.” How absurd! It was clear all along that this was just a baseless attack on a governor who’s been making waves with his conservative policies.

I won’t mention names (because let’s face it, they don’t deserve the publicity), but there were a bunch of right-wing “influencers” who supported another primary candidate and couldn’t resist running their mouths. They were quick to jump on the Disney bandwagon and spread nonsense about DeSantis getting defeated. Well, maybe it’s time for them to apologize and eat a little humble pie.
And let’s not forget about Nikki Haley, who invited Disney to South Carolina instead of standing with one of the most successful conservative governors we’ve seen in years. That was a low point for her, in my opinion. I won’t say anything more, but she should seriously reconsider her allegiances.
Now, winning takes time, my friends. Just because a politician is being sued doesn’t mean they’ve been defeated. It simply means there’s more work to be done. And now that this lawsuit has been dismissed, Disney is out of moves. They’ve already lost the battle over their special district, and surprise, surprise, all the fear-mongering about higher taxes on residents has proven to be nothing but hot air. DeSantis knew what he was talking about all along.
I have to admit, I’m a little salty about this whole ordeal. Republicans haven’t had many victories lately, so to see supposed allies trash DeSantis and take Disney’s side out of sheer pettiness is truly disappointing. It shouldn’t have happened, and those who chose that path should be taken a little less seriously next time around.
So let’s raise a glass to Governor DeSantis for his resounding victory over “The Mouse.” He’s proven once again that he’s a force to be reckoned with, and I can’t wait to see what other successes he’ll achieve in the future. Keep up the good work, Governor!
