Donald and Melania Trump rang in the New Year with a bang at Mar-a-Lago. Surrounded by a star-studded crowd, the couple stole the show as they shared a kiss and danced the night away to the classic YMCA. The president-elect, with his signature marching moves, and Melania, swaying effortlessly, were clearly having the time of their lives. The fun didn’t stop there, as Elon Musk joined in on the dancefloor, with son X AE A-XII making a rare appearance on his father’s shoulders.
Inside Donald Trump’s NewYear celebration
A viral video shows the countdown going on stage as Trump and Melania enjoy a groovy night. As soon as the countdown ends, the first thing Trump does is lean toward Melania for a kiss, putting any separation rumours to rest. With Melania taking a less active role in Trump’s second presidential campaign and not taking on a full-time First Lady role when he takes office, rumours have swirled about tension between the duo, with critics pointing to subtle hints.

“They love each other!” one social media user commented on the video. “Clearly in love, despite the controversies. Anyone who says otherwise is a fool,” another chimed in. When someone suggested they were only doing it for the camera, another responded, “Oh, come on! Can’t you see they’re completely unaware of the cameras and just enjoying each other’s company?”
Taking to his Instagram account, Donald’s eldest child, son Donald Trump Jr., 47, dropped a party video and wrote, “It’s fun to stay at the YMCA!!!! Happy new year all!” When YMCA blared through the speakers, Melania was seen swaying to the beat and belting out the chorus. One X user wrote, “Never did I imagine Melania Trump jamming to YMCA!” while another chimed in with, “Love Melania doing her own moves to YMCA.”
