"Disney. Now, this is a tremendous story. So Disney. March 12, 2021. All right. Two years plus. Disney's stock price was $197 a share. Okay. Today, $86 a share. I don't know what it closed at, but when it opened, $86 a share, down 111 points. Disney is the most well-known corporation in the world. So it is imploding, and the reason is imploding is because of Ron DeSantis.  Because the governor of Florida attacked Disney for being insanely woke. And most of the people who would consider buying Disney products, going to the theme parks, going to their movies. A lot of those people, including me. No more. That's what happened.

So this summer alone, Disney's losses on paper are $1 billion. They have three movies out. Indiana Jones. It made 356 million. That's huge. But it cost to make and market 600 million. So they're going to take a $200 million bath on Indiana Jones. Haunted Mansion bombed. Cost 150 million, and it's below 50 million in receipts right now. Little Mermaid made a little bit of money. Cost 250 million and it's made about 300, about 560 million worldwide. But the Disney franchise, just like Bud Light - Anheuser Busch is not going to recover from this because traditional Americans don't trust it anymore, just like the press."
