Trump weighs in on the Ron DeSantis feud with Disney

Former President Donald Trump took to Truth Social today to comment on Ron DeSantis and his handling of the state's continuously escalating dispute with Disney.

"DeSanctus is being absolutely destroyed by Disney. His original P.R. plan fizzled, so now he's going back with a new one in order to save face," Trump said.

Trump predicts Disney's next move will be "the announcement that no more money will be invested in Florida because of the Governor."

Trump went on to say, "they could even announce a slow withdrawal or sale of certain properties, or the whole thing. Watch! That would be a killer. In the meantime, this is all so unnecessary, a political STUNT!"

DeSantis said yesterday he expects to nullify Disney's last-minute deal with Reedy Creek Improvement District, continuing to retaliate against Disney for its public opposition to the so-called "Don't Say Gay Bill."

I just read a report that the CFTOD meeting was a boring managing the district business, just like the old RCID days. No protests and very little attendance. No mention of the pending negotiation of the developement agreement.

Was curious about this: Is there an expectation that CFTOD will delegate some responsibilities to the cities as part of the understanding between the state and Disney?

They objected the delay?

Federal Judge officially granted a 60 day delay on the Federal Case. Disney requested so a new developement agreement could be negotiated, the CFTOD did not object.
