Possible presidential candidate Mike_Pence took a swing at a potential rival, GovRonDeSantis. Pence contended that DeSantis threatening Disney's self-governing district went beyond the scope of limited-government conservatism.
While commending DeSantis's moves to safeguard parental rights over children in the classroom, Pence contended that his recent steps leading toward the takeover of Disney's self-governing district went beyond the scope of limited-government conservatism."I fully support what Florida did about protecting kids under the third grade," Pence told CNBC's Squawk Box. "I have concerns about the follow-on. Disney stepped into the fray. They lost.
Initially, DeSantis moved to eliminate Disney's self-governing status in its district, but ultimately, the Florida legislature concluded that would risk posing an increased tax burden on locals, so it moved to give DeSantis control over the board that oversees development at Walt Disney World earlier this month.
Although DeSantis has become a darling in many conservative circles for crusading against woke policies by wielding government power, some such as Gov. Chris Sununu have voiced apprehension about his heavy-handedness with the government. "When you look at the 2022 election cycle, it’s an affirmation that elections are about the future," the former vice president said."We’re going to have better choices [than Donald Trump] in 2024."
