In a particularly happy and dancing way, Donald Trump and Melania Trump chose to welcome the new year, 2025, with the video immediately going viral on social media.

The iconic song “YMCA” by the Village People formed the musical carpet of the festive moment, combined with characteristic dance moves and fun.

The video, from their Mar-A-Lago reunion, which was originally posted by one of Trump’s close aides on Truth Social, and later circulated on platforms such as Twitter and TikTok, shows the couple, taken from behind, to dance in a grand hall full of lights and decorations for the New Year. Trump, known for his love of this song, gave his own rhythm to the moves, while Melania accompanied him with elegance.

Reactions on the internet

Reactions on social media were not long in coming. Trump supporters called it a “fun and human moment,” while others sarcastically commented on the song choice and the energy of the dance. Regardless of feedback, the event garnered millions of views within hours, with hashtags like #YMCA and #TrumpDance2025 trending. Either positive or negative, the video garnered millions of views within hours.

Trump’s relationship with the “YMCA”

“YMCA” has a long history with Donald Trump, as it was one of his key campaign songs. The song was always intended to bring excitement and positive energy to the crowds, despite the backlash from the Village People, who had expressed their opposition to using the track in political contexts.

So 2025 for the new Presidential couple of America started with laughter and rhythm, leaving the mark of a positive mood which, according to him, is necessary to face the challenges of the new year.
