Melania Joins Trumpâs Viral âYMCAâ Dance on July 4th. Donald Trumpâs signature âYMCAâ dance â with hip sways and air punches â has long been a highlight at his rallies, becoming a viral sensation across sports and social media.
This Fourth of July, the routine took an unexpected turn: Melania Trump joined in. During celebrations at the White House, she mimicked Trumpâs moves with a more subtle touch, surprising many and sparking a wave of online reactions.
The dance first gained popularity during Trumpâs presidency, set to the Village Peopleâs âYMCA.â Despite the groupâs past objections to its political use, Trump continued to embrace it.
In a December 2024 Fox interview, Melania had called the dance âhappy and unique,â saying sheâd never tried it. That changed this July 4th, when she joined her husband on the White House balcony in a lighthearted performance.
Reactions were mixed. Supporters saw it as a joyful, united front. Critics dismissed it as staged and calculated.
Love it or hate it, the Trump âYMCAâ dance â now with Melaniaâs spin â remains a memorable part of American political theater.
