Disgraced Phil Festival organizer Billy MacFarlane appears to be working with Donald Trump in preparation for his re-election bid later this year.
According to a report published by Rolling Stone on Monday (July 8), the notorious businessman contacted Icewear Vezzo’s team and put him in touch with the former president in Detroit. Before that, he even claimed to have orchestrated Sheff G and Sleepy Hallow’s appearance at a Trump rally in the Bronx earlier this year, saying, “I just love bringing different people together.”
Three sources close to the 78-year-old said MacFarlane has so far not worked with the politician in an official capacity. However, two of them confirmed that he had been summoned to help the former TV personality connect with celebrities as part of his current efforts.
Last month, the convicted fraudster met with the 45th president and shared a photo of them with the caption: “President’s birthday with your new cabinet present.”
Icewear Vezzo has been in the spotlight since posing with Trump, but has been staunchly supporting him ever since. In mid-June, the owner of Iced Up Records shared a lengthy message about supporting the presidential candidate.
“Tell Donald I made 6 great again,” he wrote. “But let’s be honest, everyone is not going to agree with this photo, but we don’t have to agree on everything, I just know that not many of us have the opportunity to really speak for us and address how we really feel. I go by faith. Going out there, I got to know him not as a rapper, but as a man and a father who understood that the only way to try to change things was to fix things.

If they find people who think exactly like them, there’s no point in not hiring anyone. people.
In the caption of the post, he added: “Don’t be afraid to ask questions, don’t let social media do your thinking for you, go and see for yourself. Don’t agree with everything anyone does, it doesn’t follow logic and comes without true understanding. Don’t draw conclusions based on what you are saying.
