Former President Donald Trump has officially re-entered the presidential race, making a prominent appearance at the Republican National Convention (RNC) in Milwaukee. His return comes shortly after narrowly escaping an assassination attempt in Pennsylvania. At the event, Trump garnered support from key figures like Nikki Haley, Ron DeSantis, and Vivek Ramaswamy, highlighting his continued influence within the Republican Party.
A nostalgic moment ensued when organizers played a compilation video of Trump dancing to the Village People’s hit song “YMCA” before he took the stage. This dance, a signature move from his 2020 campaign rallies, captured the attention of both attendees and online viewers. The 1978 song, popular at various American gatherings, featured Trump energetically dancing, waving, and pumping fists to cheers from the crowd.
