Breitbart Reports: It’s been a brutal week for Disney.

Several anxiety-ridden senior staffers ran to the left-leaning Hollywood trade publication Deadline to bash CEO Bob Iger, accusing him of capitulating to President Donald Trump through a series of moves that have Disney employees across the company wondering “What’s next? Where do we go from here? What do we stand for now, keeping MAGA happy?”

“This is not what I expected from Bob — I thought he had our back,” an unnamed staffer told the outlet of Iger.

On Monday, Captain America: Brave New World, Disney’s latest attempt to recapture its diminished box office magic, announced a final forecast opening of $70 to $85 million. “For a new Marvel movie, especially a Captain America movie, those are not very promising numbers,” Breitbart’s John Nolte noted.

Tuesday dumped dueling disastrous headlines on Bob Iger’s desk. “Disney Executives Worried as Soaring Prices Drive Families Away from Theme Parks,” read one Breitbart headline while “Disney Drops Two DEI Programs as Investor Backlash Grows” read another. The latter headline led to Disney employees saying they feel abandoned by Iger.

Wednesday’s news coverage on the Captain America 4 world premiere in Los Angeles on Tuesday night was dominated by reports of the protesters who crashed the glitzy event, waving signs and shouting “free Palestine” and “boycott Disney.”

    Painted into a corner by their own brush. Fire them all and start over is the only solution since zealots can't be reasoned with, but management is far too cowardly and corrupt itself.
