WASHINGTON — Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley butted heads Wednesday night over the role of government in regulating private business practices during the final Republican primary debate before the Jan. 15 Iowa caucuses. "We took on (Walt Disney Co.) and we defeated that and we won that fight and our kids are better off," DeSantis said. "Now, Nikki Haley sided with Disney. She invited them to South Carolina." "I will always invite businesses to come to South Carolina," said Haley, who governed South Carolina from 2011 through 2017.
