President-elect Donald Trump’s teenage granddaughter, Kai, recently went viral on social media when she and a friend performed their own versions of the famous “Trump dance.” Following Trump’s decisive win in the 2024 election, conservatives have celebrated en masse with the viral dance to the tune of the “YMCA” by the Village People.
In the video, Kai and her friend wore matching black outfits, appearing to be on Trump Force One. As the song kicked in, the two began shooting their fists in either direction, just like Kai’s grandfather. The dance then morphed into mimicking a golf swing, as the president-elect has often done. The clip has garnered millions of views across X, drawing numerous reactions.
The popular conservative X account Ann is Right shared the clip, writing, “How adorable is this? Check out Kai Trump performing her grandfather Donald’s iconic YMCA dance!!” Another MAGA X account Mila Joy wrote, “I love that Trump’s Granddaughter, Kai Trump, is even getting in on the greatest dance craze since the running man. And on Trump Force One too.”
“It’s so refreshing to see the Country having fun again. Fun and Happiness is contagious,” one person commented. Predicting Kai would inevitably turn out to be successful like the rest of her family, one person said, “Can’t wait to see what she accomplishes in life. I have a feeling we’ll see great things.” Another comment read, “Get it, ladies. I know he’s one proud grandpa to have so many great grandchildren.
You can tell he has a great family.”
The American Tribune recently reported on inspiring comments from Kai about her grandfather and how Trump motivates her to be a “just like him,” as she approaches adulthood. Kai said, “He doesn’t take any breaks, doesn’t do anything, really decide to work. And it’s just, like, truly motivating to see that every single day and have that as a role model. Because when I grew up, I want to just be like him and just fight like him, and don’t take any days off, and just keep on working, work my butt off, just like how he does. And it’s just truly incredible.”
“And the election night was really, like, special for our whole family, because it really just we fought to the very end, and yes, it’s his last time running. So, so special for him to win, because he really deserves this,” she added. “And after everyone, like, what everyone has put him through, it made me tear up, like, after him winning Pennsylvania, like, I just started, like, tearing up, knowing that he made it, and he finally just fought back and he won.”
“I think he’s gonna kill it,” she further stated, before applauded her grandfather’s amazing work ethic. “Every single thing he does. He puts 100% of his effort into it, and I think he’s gonna do an amazing job, and he deserves this more than anyone in the whole world. And he’s gonna kill it and make America great again. And he’s really gonna do what’s right for the people.”
