At first I thought OSR comparing DeSantis to Reagan was ridiculous but then the more I thought about it comparing the “Don’t say gay” guy to the guy who deliberately let AIDS kill millions in the gay community might not be unfair

No it makes perfect sense OSR. This was a stunt all along, and what your party really wants is $$$ first, keeping big business satisfied second. All the railing against Disney was performative as much as Disney's own "wokeness" is. The fact is Florida and Disney have had a perfectly lucrative arrangement for decades and it was never in either side's best interest to break it.

Well if DeSantis wants to be a transformative leader he’s probably gonna have to fight Kevin McCarthy and a Republican congress to ensure his hypothetical first year of his presidency doesn’t go like Trump 17 which saw much of the agenda he ran on shelved to pursue the congressional GOP agenda .

While I support the tax reform of 17 , we don’t need any new major tax cuts and we need someone who would actually reduce the power of DC bureaucracy and you would have to fight the Congressional party to do that .

DeSantis going against Disney was an indication that he would be willing to take on powerful interests to actually be successful in passing a conservative agenda .

The last statement is true if and only if the conservative agenda is "own the libs".

It’s fundamentally not conservative for the government to give any one mega corporation special privileges like this .
Okay but that has nothing to do with what happened, Disney got these privileges stripped for speaking out on “Don’t say gay” not because of some stand on these privileges which they are more than fine giving out as long as these companies don’t criticize their reactionary culture war policies
