"Well, first of all, the song was never written about anything to do with gay,” founding member Felipe Rose (recognizable as the Native American) told the Huffington Post in 2014. “It was just a filler song, based on the ex-producer seeing the YMCA sign during lunch and asking us what it meant. Sure, there was ambiguity and they were using a double entendre, but it was really just supposed to be one more song to fill out the album.”
Ok, here's what another band member (David Hodo) said in a Spin article.
“Y.M.C.A.” certainly has a gay origin. That’s what Jacques was thinking when he wrote it, because our first album [1977’s Village People] was possibly the gayest album ever. I mean, look at us. We were a gay group. So was the song written to celebrate gay men at the YMCA? Yes. Absolutely. And gay people love it.
"I hear you've become quite the DJ here" Do you actually spin?
Trump ~ "No I don't spin, I pick, I pick the ones (songs) I like"
Trump ~ "You know what song gets them rocking? ... YMCA"
"What is the best song to transition from YMCA?"
Trump ~ "Hold On I'm Coming"
They probably took that as sexual but we here know what’s up lol.
I am fine if somebody doesn’t like Trump, but to so blatantly ignore his genius - when it’s so obvious?
Can anyone explain why Trump loves YMCA, a song that's very thinly veiled about gay hookups? I'm not getting it.

I looked. All I found was the original Young Men's Christian Association. If you're thinking of another meaning, I'm going to need at least a hint.
