It's also about how much power Trump has though.
I mean they do lobby for republican lawmakers and recently donated more than $80k worth to individuals who actively supported the "Don't Say Gay" bill…
They made a deal with DeSantis, meaning this move would not happen without consulting him first. From my understanding, due to the backlash against American companies, especially Tesla, Disney can get in hot water financially. They export American soft power all over the world, so it is important not to tarnish their appearance especially in a context where there is trump in power, imagine if tomorrow they decided to stop DEI for good; the Disney Parks around the world and Disney World would get hit financially as well as their movie industry, thus also hitting Florida's economy centered around fun parks and tourism. It’s some kind of abusive co-dependency.
My friend, have you not been paying attention? Trump doesn't give a shit about any of that. He's burning all the bridges to "eradicate woke".
Disney represents 40B$ and constitutes a big chunk of Florida economy, they cannot afford what Tesla is going through, so sure he might not personally give a fuck, but DeSantis and the other cultists sure do.
