He's really the most pro-gay Republican there is. In fact, I said, if it wasn't for SCOTUS making gay marriage legal, Trump probably never gets the Republican Nomination in 2016, but once it was fait accompli, he never had to address the issue.

Village People, the American disco group behind the hits "YMCA," "Macho Man" and "In the Navy," has given the go-ahead for President Donald Trump to plays its songs at events, despite being "inundated" with requests from fans urging the band to block the president's use of the music.
"We have received numerous requests demanding that we prevent or ban President Donald Trump’s use of our songs, particularly 'YMCA' and 'Macho Man,'" the group said in a statement posted to Facebook Monday.

Trump supporters are singing ‘MAGA’ to the tune of YMCA because truly nothing is sacred anymore
MAGA supporters changed the lyrics to "YMCA" and it's as haunting as you might suspect. We recommend not watching it. Don't. Please, save yourselves from the horror...
That’s very nice of them
Gay?
Oh come on.

I love VP! Thank you VP!
Richard Grenell approves!

It’s quite funny that a band made up of perverts is apparently one of the few that understands how music licensing works.
I think Trump was going to continue paying whatever licensing fees and playing those songs when he felt like it, regardless of what the group members had to say. And why not?
Permission not needed, but cool nonetheless!
Very respectful response and wording from them.
Nice, considering the pressure the got.
BTW. What has Trump done to harm gay rights?
It didn’t take long for the liberal MSM to toss gays under the bus in their effort to demean Trump. Trump strategy works again!
Pres Trump is certainly my idea of a Macho Man-the song fits...
Gay Anthems? It’s been played at every Straight Wedding Reception I’ve ever been to.
I like P too. The YMCA has been a staple at weddings on the dance floor it’s fun.
It is the GOP wedding cake.
I am told that at least one of the Village People is not gay. Can’t remember which one. But I bet whomever it was that dude cut a LOT of rug back in the day...
As long as he doesn’t play “It’s Raining Men” at his rallies.
I always thought The Village People were stand-up guys.
