Trump dancing to 'YMCA' at Florida rally has Internet in splits: 'POTUS dances like my grandma working out'

While addressing a rally in Sanford near Orlando, Trump did what has become his trademark dance, pumping his fists as the crowd cheered

President Donald Trump on Monday, October 12, resumed his campaign trail with a massive rally in Florida, just two weeks after he tested positive for Covid-19. "I went through it and now they say I’m immune," Trump said while addressing a cheering crowd in Sanford, near Orlando. However, the highlight of the campaign rally was when he started dancing to The Village People’s 'YMCA'. With the song booming over loudspeakers, the president did what has become his trademark dance, pumping his fists as the crowd cheered.

The event came less than two weeks after the president announced that he and FLOTUS Melania Trump had tested positive for Covid-19 on October 2, setting off a string of diagnoses in the White House. Trump was briefly hospitalized at Walter Reed Medical Center after experiencing fever and low oxygen levels, though he was soon discharged on October 5. On October 12, just ahead of his return to the campaign trail, White House physician Dr Sean Conley confirmed the president had tested negative for the virus and is "not infectious to others".

Soon, clips of Trump's carefree rally dance made its way to Twitter and people started reacting to it. One user shared the video and wrote, "Donald Trump dances almost as bad as he Presidents." Calling his dance "embarrassing" another one wrote, "The suburban housewives must be swooning at this, right? Seriously, this is embarrassing."

Another one said, "After seeing video of Donald Trump dancing, I wonder what’s going through his mind. Is he thinking Dancing with the Stars, or is he worried about Dancing Behind Bars?" Sharing a very old video of Trump grooving, another one wrote, "tRump has the same disgusting dance moves he had 30 years ago. What a extra smooth operator."

One angry user wrote, "How dare Trump dance & celebrate after receiving $5,000,000.00 of meds that our families 215,000 did not receive! Medicines paid by the Americans who have no unemployment no jobs no savings left! I pray everyday God humbles you! Show us a plans & changes to get out if this mess!" Urging people to vote, one said, "Three weeks. Three. F***ing. Weeks. If you don't vote, you are going to have to watch Trump dance to 'Macho Man' for another 4 years. Do you understand this??? Go vote."

One Twitterati joked about his moves and wrote, "Trump dances like my grandma working out, lol." One more asked everyone to vote him out and wrote, "16K Dead. Numbers rising. Trump denies there's a problem. 11.03 America will vote the acting president out. Trump will deny the results. His cult members will get violent. What happens then is anyone's guess. Meanwhile, the reality tv star dances. #VoteHimOut." Another wrote, "Ain’t that the same dance SpongeBob did when he was on that marching bad  #trump #TrumpIsALaughingStock #trump2020."
