He said "my writing partner was gay... some of the Village People were gay, the...album was totally about gay life" but it's not a gay anthem. 🤣

For real though, this is just nazis appropriating culture like they do with all of their symbols, including the swastika. Trump is playing the song at rallies partially in an attempt to take it away from a targeted group and make it his own.
