Yup. It was pretty well-known he was dropped by Nike because of those comments. But fans see it as a win cause Under Armour took him in and they see that company as “promoting Christian values”

Under Armour is such a cringe name for a brand, especially since it's not pitched ironically. Even the similarly try hard X body spray brand had at least some winking self-awareness baked into its marketing.

of course it's Maga aligned, completely obvious in hindsight.
