The DeSantis campaign has been using Disney animatronic systems, and Disney has just refused to do maintenance work on these systems.  Apparently (the article is aomwehat ambiguous) there is an animatronic of Mr. DeSantis, which broke down.

While most of the company's audio-animatronics figures use pneumatic systems for movement, said the source, a mix of pneumatic and hydraulic elements are used in other figures depending on figure size and the range and speed of movement required.

"The DeSantis project, it's all hydraulics,” said the Disney source. “The campaign wanted it to be pneumatic but we just couldn't put as much hot air in that system as the DeSantis campaign insisted on.”
