On one hand, what he's "saying" isn't wrong, at a fundamental level. A corporation should have to follow the same laws as everybody else. That said, it's kinda obvious that Disney has had no major issues arise from their special status in Florida, and the only reason he's going after them isn't because he wants to level the playing field, it's because they had the guts to stand up to him and his hateful policies, so he's trying to be seen as "tough" on big corporations to bolster his chances in the presidential election.
It's also hilarious because having a corporation instead of tax payers pay for maintaining roads and utilities is a "small-government" wet dream but he's intent on trying to get rid of it.
Disney also overpaid taxes and things like that. He really wants to slaughter the goose that lays the golden eggs.
