Donald Trump has claimed that his dance moves to the Village People's "Y.M.C.A.” helped a resurgence on the Billboard charts. The song topped Billboard’s Top Dance/Electronic Digital Song Sales chart in late 2024, more than four decades after its original release. During a speech at The Villages retirement community in Florida, Trump claimed that the song was No. 5 32 years ago, and it went to No. 1 32 years later. The track was frequently used during his 2024 presidential campaign and spent two weeks at No.1 on the Top Dance-Electronic digital Song Sales Chart that November. Village People founder Victor Willis defended Trump's use of the song, stating that it has benefited greatly in terms of chart placements and sales since Trump incorporated it into his campaign.
