In the latest episode of “Adventures in Theme Park Politics,” we have two unsuspecting heroes visiting the happiest places on earth. Our journey starts in Florida, where Benny, like any proud father, took his five-year-old daughter to Disney World to fulfill her birthday wish. But this wasn’t just about princesses and fairy tales. Benny and his daughter braved the Hall of Presidents to see the newly updated animatronic of President Trump, which now includes a more realistic appearance compared to previous versions. It seems Disney is taking cues from Florida’s political climate, adding a touch of “Trump style” to the experience.

Meanwhile, on the opposite coast, JD Vance ventured to Disneyland with his family. Despite no evidence of protesters or political spectacle occurring on that day, some folks just can’t resist turning a simple family vacation into a political battleground. Vance continued his day with the usual dad duties of running after his kids, an activity that some took to social media to criticize for its comedic flare. Come on, folks, should we really be judging a dad-dash at Disneyland?

Now, while JD Vance enjoyed his Disneyland outing, the internet had previously been amused by comparisons of leisurely runs to the graceful missteps of President Biden’s animatronic relocations in the Hall of Presidents, although not specifically referencing personal incidents. The moral of the story? Even politicians need a break, and a day at Disney is hardly a scandalous one. Remember, folks, Dad at Disneyland is not the equivalent of a diplomatic visit to Disneyland.

In the end, whether it’s animatronic speeches or dads doing the Disneyland shuffle, it seems the real takeaway from Disney’s magic is a lesson in not taking oneself too seriously. Let the politicians do dad things and let’s save the political critique for when they’re not just trying to ride exotic themed adventures with their families. This light-hearted escapade reminds us all that sometimes, even the biggest names need to take life with a dose of laughter and a hint of whimsy.
