Donald Trump praised Ike Perlmutter for parting room with Disney , claiming Perlmutter walked away over not wanting a " woke Donald Duck . "
If you necessitate a agile refresher course about what ’s been go on with The Walt Disney Co. CEOBob Igerand ex - Marvel Entertainment ChairmanIsaac"Ike " Perlmutterover the retiring few years , we ’re going to start back in April 2023 . That was when Perlmutter claimed that he was terminate " as a result of my try out to help Disney improve its business " and for patronize shareholderNelson Peltz ’s activist efforts towards the board and the company too soon in 2023 . During a profile consultation forTIME100 , Iger responded to Perlmutter’sclaimabout the understanding for his termination .
Stating that " this determination would have been made regardless " of Perlmutter ’s support of Peltz , Iger reaffirm that Perlmutter ’s deviation was the result of " creating a more efficient company " and eliminating " redundance " ( with Marvel Entertainment broken up & folded into already - subsist departments ) . " This was a necessary step in the direction of us creating a more efficient company . There was redundancy specific to the way Marvel was being managed , " Iger shared . Perlmutter would go on to sell all of his Disney stock certificate before this twelvemonth , with theWall Street Journalreporting that Perlmutter take in tight to $ 3B for approximately 25.6 thou shares .
While it still remains to be seen if this is the end of the dramatic play between the two , incoming POTUSDonald Trumpwanted Perlmutter to know that he made the correct call during an event at Mar - a - Lago on Monday night . " The guy wire went from stone - cold break to owning Disney,“Trump said of Perlmutter . " Then he got out of Disney because they went woke . He did n’t want wake up Donald Duck , right ? " It should be noted thatInside Out 2was released after Perlmutter was no longer with Disney and had sold his stock . Why is that important to take note ? As of December 222nd , the animated motion picture had gross $ 1.699B worldwide – gain it the highest - grossing animated pic of all time ( and showing that " Go Woke , Go Broke " is just a joke ) .
