Disney does has two worrying tendencies. 1. Nazism and 2. Doing whatever will bring the greatest profits. Everything else is irrelevant.
Point 2 applies to pretty much every large company I can think of.
2 has to apply to every large company. You don’t become a large company unless you relentlessly pursue profit.
Disney doesn’t care about winning. Disney cares about stock price. If line goes up Disney will clam up no questions asked.
Very true, but investors are sensitive to changes in the wind. Trump is looking very weak these days, and any company who allows themselves to be cowed by his parlor tricks will lose investor confidence.

That sounds like a pretty significant change in behavior to me. Do you have any reason to believe this is true and not just wishful thinking?
I mean, just last year Disney learned the hard way that acquiescing to Trump’s whim invites volatility when they suspended Jimmy Kimmel in June. Subscribers fled in droves, they had to bring him back on… It was a shit show they’re unlikely to want to repeat.
The easy solution is to make no publicly visible moves and wait patiently.
Trump’s strength or weakness doesn’t really have too much bearing. The minute he is replaced they will adjust their tune accordingly for the new guy. Investors like Trump. The market is at a high.
Who’s going to stop Trump? Trump’s FCC? Trump’s Supreme Court? Seems unlikely…
Disney. They’re huge. Not rolling over combined with TACO is a guaranteed strategy. Or it will at least buy them 2 more weeks before TACO.

That’s a gigantic “if”.
Disney probably has more leverage lol
Yeah, hopefully they fight tooth and nail
No. They’ll ruin Kimmel, then go full North Korea.
