This is a very keen observation of the man. I also used to respect him when he was a young kid running a mega church talking folk wisdom about his daddy and i was an aspiring pastor. I am.older now and wiser, and he’s older now and his folksy anticdotes less cute. This is all marketing to get his church back on the tithing train. Dont think for a minute covid hasnt hurt his empire. Friend of the black man on one side and good conservative on the other both worlds carefully fabricated and separated but neither showing the man who exists to perpetuate his multimillion dollar brand.
