Hutchinson Roasts DeSantis For “Punishing” Disney

“I don’t believe whether you’re on the left or the right of the political spectrum that we, the government should not be telling business what they can and cannot do in terms of speech.

“And however you describe it, it appears to me that the governor did not like what Disney was doing in terms of what they were saying and exercising speech. So they’re being punished.

“That’s not what Republicanism is about. It’s not what a conservative is about. I don’t agree how Disney has handled things, but you don’t use the heavy hand of government to punish a business.

“The left does that. I don’t want the right or conservatives to do that either.” – Former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, who is expected to launch his White House bid next week.
