U.S. president-elect inspires copycats in the NFL and UFC.
Donald Trump’s signature dance is coming to a sporting event near you.
Several top sports stars over the weekend appear to have busted out The Trump (think: your awkward uncle dancing at a wedding after quaffing Aperol spritz from the free bar) to celebrate wins and big plays.
The U.S. president-elect, who romped to victory in the Nov. 5 election, has been dancing at rallies for years and his robotic jiving appears to have cut through to mainstream popular culture.
Cage fighter Jon Jones was first up, busting out the Trump moves seconds after his victory in the Ultimate Fighting Championship on Saturday night — in front of a live audience including Trump himself, billionaire Elon Musk, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, incoming Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and several other MAGA heavyweights.
Trump shared a video of Jones’ homage on his Truth Social account Sunday.
In the National Football League — which irritated the president-elect repeatedly during his first term — awkward jigging practically went viral Sunday afternoon.
Multiple Detroit Lions defensemen, led by Za’Darius Smith, did the dance to celebrate a big play in the final moments of a huge win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Smith even mimicked a little golf swing, a recent added flourish by Trump to his on-stage boogieing.
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers broke out the jig to celebrate a third quarter touchdown.
