Republican commentator and politician Kari Lake mocked Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ ongoing feud with Disney during an appearance on Newsmax’s The Balance on Tuesday and questioned how DeSantis could expect to beat former President Donald Trump in the Republican primary when he “can’t beat” Donald Duck.”
“Trump is brilliant, he works the media to perfection, but this whole idea of the fight that is going on down here in Florida between Governor DeSantis and Disney, I mean, it represents so much for conservatives,” said host Eric Bolling. “They love what DeSantis is doing, you know, kind of muting Disney a little bit against all their woke nonsense.”
Pointing out that Trump had “somehow kind of got behind Disney a little bit on that,” Bolling asked Lake whether Trump should move closer to backing DeSantis in the feud.
“Well, Eric, I believe that fighting woke is a worthy cause, absolutely,” Lake replied. “There are few things more important, honestly, than stopping the radical indoctrination and, frankly, the sexual mutilation of our children. But we can’t do it half-assed.”
“When you pick a fight with Disney, you need to play to win, and so far Governor DeSantis has been outworked and outmaneuvered by Disney,” she argued. “As far as I know, Reedy Creek still exists, they’re still hosting trans events at their park, this indoctrination is continuing, and they’re actually rubbing it in the faces of American families.”
Lake then asked, “You know, if you can’t beat Donald Duck, how are you gonna beat Donald Trump?”
“I think that’s the question we have to ask when it comes to Governor DeSantis and I think he should stay in Florida and continue fighting for the people there and try to finish that,” Lake suggested, before concluding that she would “rather see President Trump, who’s a dealmaker, who can make things happen, take on woke corporations.”
According to an Axios report in March, Trump sees Lake “as a model for his vice presidential pick” in 2024. However, Lake has said that Trump is “so strong” he “doesn’t really need a VP.”
Trump has repeatedly mocked DeSantis over his feud with Disney and wrote in April that the governor was “being absolutely destroyed” by the company.

VP bid?
More MSM instigating ?!@
Ouch.
She talkin’ ‘bout Donald J. Disney?
:^)
Mike drop
He is beating Donald Duck. But Donald Trump is in a different league and he ain’t beating Trump.
The result could very likely be more powerful than the sum of the parts.
That is my guess.
But The Deep State will make sure that Trump loses and Lake’s political career goes down the drain,
Kari is eloquent, smart, beautiful and patriotic.
DeSantis has been WAY more successful than Kari Lake. And unlike Trump, he’s fighting against the perverting of our kids.
I voted for Kari Lake and REALLY wanted her to win...but this is just her sucking up to Trump.
No she is talking about meatball DeSantis at 17%
Trump saved meatballs azz during his first run.
Meatball is in pockets of his rich sugar daddies. wake up and use your brain.
Donald Duck beat himself.
Mickey is hurting.
Minnie is crying.
Goofy is going crazy.
Cinderella is looking to move out of her castle.
Iger is getting beat by a tiger.
Disney is clueless and mindless.
Disneland has turned into Wokeland.
She’s a kraken whore and a narcissist who loves attention. And a loser. Nothing more.
That is impossible. DeSantis & Trump are on different teams. Wall Street vs Main Street. Follow the money trail.
You betcha. I love Kari Lake.
Well… to be fair DeSantis hasn’t lost to Disney… yet, anyway.
