Village People, the disco band whose “Y.M.C.A.” is like a new national anthem, is performing during Donald Trump’s inauguration festivities.
President-elect Donald Trump closed out his "Make America Great Again Victory Rally" address by dancing with the Village People in a performance of the group's 'Y.M.C.A.' disco hit.
The president-elect hosted the “Make American Great Again Victory Rally” at Washington’s Capital One Arena on Sunday, less than 24 hours before Inauguration Day.
