DeSantis vs. Disney

MAGA conservatives supporting Ron DeSantis in his fight against Disney are riding high on the fact that the entertainment giant’s recent box office flops have lost them $900 million. They further delight that Desantis’ message, i.e., that Disney loves gays and that real Americans abhor queers of all types, resonates with a great number of Floridian voters.

What they’re deliberately lying about is that Disney’s capacity to earn money is unflagging.  Its net income/loss for the twelve months ending March 31, 2023 was $11.062 billion, a 41.58% increase year-over-year. Its annual net income/loss for 2022 was $3.553 billion, a 40.1% increase from 2021.

We need to add the fact that antipathy towards the LGBTQ community is a total loser in a general election, as the vast majority of American voters support these people’s rights.
