That music seemed like a cover of the original “Macho Man” — didn’t sound like The Village People. (I could be wrong.)

The Village People probably have a few years on them. They may be at the ‘Villages’ in Florida. LOL

0ver 100,000 Indians packed the stadium to cheer Trump.

There was also a 14 mile motorcade.

Could be a re-recording. A lot of groups who didn’t get a ton of royalties on the originals will re-record them later on to get some cash from the album sales basically “covering” their own hit record.

Probably a way to get around paying ASCAP royalties. The record companies retain the copyright of the original recording. The band often keeps the copyright to the song itself. If the band says it's OK, you could play a cover for free.
