Victor Willis, lead singer of the music group the Village People, wrote a lengthy defense of President-elect Donald Trump using his hit song “Y.M.C.A.” and corrected the belief that the song was a “gay anthem.

Village People’s 1978 hit “ YMCA ” is the group’s most enduring song, and the hit single is frequently described as a “gay anthem” ( even the Library Of Congress thinks it is ). However, the band’s Victor Willis, who sings the song and wrote its lyrics, disagrees.
