saying about why it s pulling this project? reporter: well, jake, i received a memo from a disney spokesperson today written by the disney chairman of parks experiences and products, josh demaro, not naming desantis. but i do want to read you part of that statement because they give this reason. given the considerable changes that have occurred since the announcement of this project including new leadership and changing business conditions, we have decided not to move forward with the construction of the campus. this was not an easy decision to make but i believe it is the right one. so there were already some of these 2,000 people who already started to move to florida. they said that they would work individually case by case for their options including the option of moving back here to southern california, where those employees will remain in burbank in the los angeles area. you used the word mousetrap. that is actually also the terminology used by the trump campaign on
