See Barron’s reaction when Trump and Musk bust out the ‘YMCA’ routine on Thanksgiving
It’s not easy being a teenager, but Barron Trump has it particularly hard.
Take what he went through during Thanksgiving at Mar a Lago in West Palm Beach Thursday night, for example.
A video has gone viral of the NYU freshman seated next to his father, Donald Trump, with Elon Musk on the other side.
As No. 47’s campaign anthem, ‘70s disco classic “YMCA,” blares in the background, the president elect begins to bang on the table and bop his head back and forth to the beat.
“They have everything that you need to enjoy!” the Village People sing. “You can hang out with all the boys!”
Musk stares off into the distance, looking like the kid who doesn’t want to be called on in class. But after Trump pats him on the back, just as the chorus is about to hit, the Tesla titan smiles and raises his arms to form the letter “Y” and boogie in his seat.
Barron, whose smiling mother Melania is next to him, looks on at the two without moving a muscle. His expression is a mix of slight amusement meets cringe.
Under a post of the clip on Musk-owned X, people couldn’t help but notice the 18-year-old first son (to be) wasn’t feeling the vibe.
“Barron’s like, ‘OK, have we had enough of this song yet, father?’”
“This is peak bro level s--t, especially with Barron just getting embarrassed by it. Which makes it better.”
“Barron cracks me up. He always stays so composed.”
“Barron: ‘Oh boy!’”
Other commenters also made fun of Musk, who will head Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency, with many trolls joking he hasn’t left Mar a Lago since the election.
The South African mogul was unbothered, even resharing the post, writing, “Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!” with two American flags.
