Trump Loves Gay Anthem ‘YMCA’

Y.M.C.A is the unofficial anthem of the LGBTQ community; the ditty is played at Pride events, weddings, and sporting events.

It was a monster hit for the Village People, a disco group infamous for their kitschy on-stage costumes and gay-centric lyrics.

The members of the group dressed as characters from various occupations, including a cop, a biker and a cowboy. They symbolized American masculinity and macho gay-fantasy personas.

The song was released in 1978, a time when there weren’t that many public places where gays could meet and socialize. Ironically, the YMCA, a Christian organization, which featured open showers, was a clandestine meeting places for gay men.

YMCA may be a gay anthem, but it’s beloved by gays and straights, young and old, and lovers of all genres of music, even those who hate disco.

YMCA, with its lyrics extolling gay pride, is a staple at the homophobic MAGA rallies. Donald Trump always ends his rallies dancing to YMCA.

It’s a trip watching gay-hating evangelicals at Trump’s rallies dancing and singing the lyrics:

It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.

It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.

They have everything,

For young men to enjoy.

If only Trump would listen to the lyrics, he might stop hatin’ on the LGBT community.

The next time Trump dances to YMCA, I hope he imitates the member of the group who dressed as the Native American, and strips down to his diapers, in lieu of the loincloth that the “Indian” wore on stage.
