Its kinda funny that he's labelled almost exclusively as "MAGA" by the press when he's here to do worship services. I dont believe anything he did in his first concert had anything to do with politics, it was worship music. Its not like the press wants to stir the pot by emphasizing the MAGA thing /s

If they hadnt made a big deal out of it, this guy would've gone across Canada and nobody would've noticed except a small group of Christians. Now he's had international press and more publicity than he could ever afford to buy. Whether that was intentional or not, its brilliant marketing.

This guy has been very prominent for over a decade. The fact that's true and only a hundred or so people showed up for his concert is a relief. I guess he could always go back to one of his multi-million dollar 'parsonages' and console himself that he will somehow survive on the income from his 10 or so rental properties.

He may not have had international recognition before this tour, but I'm more than okay with people being made aware of what this person promotes before he gains traction here.
