President Joe Biden is sticking up for Floridians --and the Walt Disney Company -- to "say gay."

After the company behind the Happiest Place on Earth majorly stepped in it with its response to Florida's "Don't Say Gay," it has since done a 180 on its positions after backlash from employees and celebrity talent.

That change of tune has now prompted major backlash from the other side, with Republicans urging Gov. Ron DeSantis to strip The Walt Disney Co. of a special tax district that covers Walt Disney World.

As reported by Deadline, President Biden told a room full of donors that there is "nothing conservative" about the attacks on the company from Republicans.

"I mean, what's going on here?," said Biden reportedly asked. "What the hell is going on? And it's just — so, I don't believe it's who the vast majority of American people are."

Gov. DeSantis is expected to sign the legislation that strips Disney of its special tax credit soon.
