US soccer star Christian Pulisic has become the latest high profile individual to perform the ‘Trump dance’ – underscoring the trend’s viral spread.
Pulisic scored two goals as the USA international team beat Jamaica 4-2 in the second leg of the Concacaf Nations League quarterfinals in St. Louis last night.
The win confirmed qualification to both the Nations League Finals in March and next summer’s Concacaf Gold Cup.

“I saw everyone doing it yesterday in the NFL, I saw Jon Jones do it, and we were just having a bit of fun. I thought it was a pretty fun dance. Obviously, that’s the ‘Trump Dance’ but it was just a dance that everyone was doing. He’s the one who created it, and I thought it was funny,” said Pulisic in a post-match interview.
“It’s not a political dance. It was just for fun. I saw a bunch of people do it and thought it was funny, so I enjoyed it,” he added.
Female golfer Charley Hull also did a rendition of the dance on Sunday during her final round battle with Nelly Korda.

As we highlighted yesterday, UFC champion Jon Jones also broke out the dance made famous by the president-elect after knocking out his opponent at Madison Square Garden.
NFL players are also jumping on the bandwagon, as well as players in the English football league.
Live streamers, politicians and even people getting married at weddings in Communist China are also hopping on the trend.
After Trump’s election victory, it’s truly gone global!
If Kamala Harris had won, it undoubtedly would not have sparked such a massive expression of joy.
