Donald Trump welcomes in election day with awkward dancing video

18 minutes ago

US President Donald Trump has welcomed election day with a bizarre video edit of himself awkwardly dancing to the Village People's iconic hit 'Y.M.C.A.'

Trump shared the two-minute video to his Twitter page on Tuesday night (NZ time) with the accompanying caption urging Americans to "VOTE! VOTE! VOTE!".



He has previously been asked by former members of the Village People to stop playing their songs at his rallies.

Victor Willis, the band's police officer, told BBC News copyright laws mean he can't do anything about the use - but he is opposed to it.

It's so bad I thought somebody like the Lincoln Project did it to troll him. And "YMCA"? Has the campaign any idea that it's sort of a gay anthem?

....I hope they sue his bloated ass for copyright infringement and/or royalties.

He's such a hateful person.

Young man, there's a place you can go
I said, young man, when you're short on your dough
You can stay there, and I'm sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time
