DeSantis vs. Disney: A Political Showdown

Chris Christie criticized Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for his attacks on Disney and his inability to negotiate with the leaders of China and Russia. Christie also questioned DeSantis's conservative credentials and suggested that he should not be trusted to lead talks with foreign leaders. DeSantis's spat with Disney began over LGBTQ+ issues in public schools, and he retaliated by moving to seize control of self-governing powers long granted to the company. Christie argued that DeSantis's actions were not conservative and that he should not have used the power of government to punish a company for expressing disagreement.
