Abigail Disney Halts Donations to Democrats Until President Biden Drops Out of 2024 Presidential Race
Abigail Disney, a vocal social activist and granddaughter of Roy O. Disney, has announced that she will not donate to Democratic candidates unless President Joe Biden withdraws from the 2024 presidential race.
According to Variety, Disney believes that Biden would likely lose a reelection bid against former President Donald Trump, with potentially severe consequences.

In a statement to CNBC, she says:
I intend to stop any contributions to the party unless and until they replace Biden at the top of the ticket.
This is realism, not disrespect. Biden is a good man and has served his country admirably, but the stakes are far too high. If Biden does not step down the Democrats will lose. Of that, I am absolutely certain. The consequences for the loss will be genuinely dire.
We have an excellent Vice President. If Democrats would tolerate any of her perceived shortcomings even one-tenth as much as they have tolerated Biden’s (and let’s not kid ourselves about where race and gender figure in that inequity) and if Democrats can find a way to stop quibbling and rally around her, we can win this election by a lot.
Disney, a longtime Democratic donor, contributed $50,000 to the Jane Fonda Climate Political Action Committee in April 2024. She has also been outspoken on various issues, including the unionization of Disneyland Resort performers, the proxy fight at The Walt Disney Company initiated by Nelson Peltz, and climate change.
