Anecdotal support: members of my family are both very pro-MAGA AND lifelong Disney devotees. IE: their idea of the perfect vacation is 2 weeks in Walt Disney world. They have NOT boycotted Disney or even considered it. To the contrary, they are taking TWO Disney cruises next year. Meanwhile, my extremely progressive Star Wars megafan husband had zero interest in Ashoka and only barely got through Obi Wan or Boba Fett. Disney is producing drek and people have too many options to spend their money at the theater to spend it on drek.
Yeah, the sense I get is that the parks/cruises end of the business is largely immune from political controversy (though, obviously, people are sensitive to some of the pricing reforms/upcharges).
