President-elect Donald Trump appeared with a group of mothers on Friday as they had a luncheon at his Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida.
The president strolled into the dining room wearing golf attire and a white Make America Great Again hat as the crowd of women cheered.
The Moms for America Mothers of Influence Luncheon was held at the club on Friday where the group presented Trump with the ‘Man of the Century’ award.
'These are the greatest people in our country, Moms for America,' Trump said.
It was not long before the YMCA theme played on the loudspeakers, prompting Trump to bust out his famous dance, prompting many in the room to cheer and join him.
Trump delivered brief remarks to the group and spoke about his plans as president.
Videos of Trump's appearance and dancing made their way to social media after the luncheon.
Moms for America is a nonprofit group that focuses on ‘reclaiming our culture for truth, family, freedom and the Constitution.’

Trump appeared with the group’s vice president Debbie Kraulidis on her podcast in November 2023 to praise mothers across the country.
‘Dads are very important also but that mom is so special,’ Trump said.
Trump talked about his own mother, admitting she probably never thought he would become president of the United States.
He also spoke about his efforts to combat human trafficking and stop the flow of illegal drugs into the country as well as stopping men from playing in women's sports.
He also spoke about stopping transgender surgeries for children, which he described as 'sexual mutilation.'
'Who would think that we have to talk about sexual mutilation of children?' he marveled, adding that, 'many of the people on the other side think it's ok.'
Described as the 'most exclusive place on earth,' to DailyMail.com, the mood at a Mar-a-Lago is like a party every night, as guests strain to catch a glimpse of Trump or famous political guests as they come for meetings or job interviews with the president-elect.
The viral 'Trump dance' continues to spread across the internet as professional athletes are using it to celebrate victorious moments.
Others are imitating Trump's iconic YMCA post-rally shuffle and posting their own versions on social media.
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) fighter Jon Jones celebrated his victory on Saturday imitating Trump's now iconic YMCA post-rally shuffle as the president-elect watched in the audience.
'TikTok Jack,' Trump's political strategist for the platform told the DailyMail.com that it was not a surprise to see the Trump dance go viral on TikTok.
'What has now become the iconic ‘Trump dance’ is yet another example of President Trump’s natural ability to create viral moments that captivate audiences simply by being himself,' he said in an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com.
