So I take it that's where they're going to slot Ted Nugent. The only surprise here is Village People, who Trump has been ripping off for years. Christopher Macchio is an opera singer who's been in Trump's sphere for quite a while, the Praise Choir comes from a heavily Trump-aligned university, and the rest of them seem to be country singers - all aligned with Trump.
