BAY LAKE, Fla. — Those visiting Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom Park on Sunday might have noticed something unusual hanging in Main Street, U.S.A. -- a banner calling for President Donald Trump's re-election in 2020.
Dion Cini, 49, of New York, said he unfurled the banner and briefly hung it from a balcony overlooking the park's Town Square with the help of a bystander to garner attention for Trump's re-election campaign.
Cini told Channel 9 that the stunt cost him his annual pass, which he has had for 24 years, but he said it was well worth the free advertising.
Video showed a park employee approaching Cini.
"Sir, please remove the banner immediately," the worker said.
Cini said he took the banner into a restroom, packed it up and changed his hat so no one would recognize him.
He said he has performed similar stunts for the past two years and will continue doing so.
