Donald Trump spent Thanksgiving enjoying the company of his family, celebrities and his new ‘adopted son’ Elon Musk as they enjoyed his theme song ‘YMCA’ at a Christmas party at Mar-a-Lago.
Much of the Trump family was also at the party, with son Barron looking on in amusement as his father and the new DOGE co-chairman attempted to perform Trump’s signature dance to the Village People classic.
Elon brought the families together, bringing along his vivacious mother Maye, who has been seen passionately supporting her son on television in recent weeks.
In another video, Musk is seen rubbing shoulders with Stallone, a newest member of the so-called “Winter White House.”
The Rocky icon compared the president-elect to the Founding Fathers, calling him “the second George Washington” at a star-studded party at Mar-a-Lago two weeks ago.
Also in attendance were his wife Melania, daughter Tiffany, son Eric, and Eric’s wife and co-chair of the Republican National Committee, Lara Trump.
Elon seemed to be having a lot of fun with his new ‘adopted family,’ and social media pointed out what Trump has done in the past: He never seems to leave.
“I think Donald has adopted it,” jokes one MAGA fan when watching the videos.

Another wrote: “Elon now has a residence at Mar-a-Lago.”
A more sarcastic commenter snapped: ‘Elon has made himself at home. Looks like he even took Don Jr’s seat at the table!
One user couldn’t help but enjoy Barron’s amused face as he attempted his father’s now-iconic dance moves: “Barron says, ‘Okay, we’ve had enough of this song, father.'”
Trump has made several jokes since the election about how he can’t get rid of Musk, who became an important ally, fundraiser and organizer of the president’s successful campaign over Kamala Harris.
After the victory, Trump joined the House Republican conference where he delivered remarks during his visit to DC. Sitting front and center at the Capitol meeting was the richest man in the world.
According to one person in the room, Trump, 78, joked to House Republicans: “Elon is not coming home.”
‘I can’t get rid of him. Until I don’t like it,” the president-elect would have said.
Musk has been a near-permanent fixture at the center of Trump’s transition since the former president won the 2024 election with considerable campaign help from the businessman.

Trump’s granddaughter Kai has even nicknamed Musk “Uncle Elon.”
It comes after Trump announced that Musk will co-lead a new Department of Government Efficiency alongside 2024 Republican presidential primary candidate Vivek Ramaswamy.
Trump said in his statement that he would pave the way for his administration to dismantle “government bureaucracy” and that that would be “potentially the ‘Manhattan Project’ of our time.”
“We finally have a mandate to remove the mountain of suffocating regulations that do not serve the common good,” Musk wrote Wednesday on X, which he also owns.
But the move has also been met with criticism as Musk’s companies have tangled with the very agencies he will now deal with directly.
Musk has joined Trump on calls with world leaders and, as a member of the administration’s transition team, has weighed in on personnel decisions.
Last week, Trump watched the launch of the SpaceX spacecraft over Texas on Tuesday, accompanied by top MAGA allies and his granddaughter Kai Trump.

The president-elect, 78, listened attentively as the Tesla billionaire explained how his rockets worked before watching the largest in his fleet take off on the horizon.
The billionaire Tesla founder also joined the president-elect at a UFC event in New York City.
Trump and Musk joined opera singer Chris Macchio on stage for a rare rendition of God Bless America during a party at Mar-a-Lago just after the election.
The performance came after Trump, accompanied by his billionaire First Buddy, flew to DC for face-to-face talks with President Joe Biden.
The duo received a hero’s welcome again at the ‘Winter White House’ last Wednesday and made a surprise appearance at the A1Policy conference and joined Macchio as he belted out the patriotic classic. Musk appeared to imitate the lyrics.
