DeSantis disappoints. Strike one Ron.
They probably did the math to maintain it and decided it was more sound to work it out.
Thanks for the down doot whoever gave it

Lawyers live for money. Apparently it's of no consequence to him if it comes from the DS.
Staunchly America First Florida state representative Anthony Sabatini made a post on Twitter highlighting the betrayal:
Update: DeSantis communications team released a statement that DID NOT REFUTE that Florida is making a “compromise deal” with Disney to give Disney what it wants
The statement also DID NOT REFUTE any element of the @FT story from today except the use of the metaphor “u-turn”/ pic.twitter.com/BCcx1DTRVR

A Financial Times report indicated that Florida lawmakers are working closely with DeSantis’ office to give Disney back their special tax privileges and allow them to administer their parks with a private government called the Reedy Creek Improvement District. The reinstatement of CEO Bob Iger over Disney is allowing the company to exploit Florida taxpayers once more, and DeSantis is apparently happy to go along with this.
On Fox this morning a State Senator said things will NEVER be the way they were. Yes they will work with Disney but the old rules are gone KAPUT for good.
