I’m just perpetually sad and will never understand.

Village People to perform at multiple Trump inauguration events, band says – Lead singer Victor Willis said he hopes the band’s “Y.M.C.A.” disco hit “helps bring the country together after a tumultuous and divided campaign.”

Just heard The Village People are set to perform at Trump’s inauguration.

At this point, perhaps they should rename themselves “The Villages People.”

Sure Jan, MUSIC BRINGS PEOPLE TOGETHER however, well, you are being paid to perform at events supporting a regime, cough cough – I mean the “inauguration.” Which is all well and good if you believe in Project 2025 and the acts of love that will soon be our daily life.

Oh and right after you leave the stage – watch how “people will come together” – at least all those who aren’t a white christian hetrosexual able-bodied male with a large bank account.
