It was in 1978 that, through the power of song, some kind village people informed young men that \u201cthere\u2019s no need to feel down\u201d.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the hitmakers weren\u2019t aware of the video that Donald Trump Jr \u2013 son of the former president \u2013 would post on Friday for this year\u2019s Thanksgiving celebrations.<\/p>\n

Putting the \u2018why\u2019 in YMCA, the Republican shared a video of the famous turkey scene from the film,\u00a0National Lampoon\u2019s Christmas Vacation<\/em>\u00a0\u2013 albeit with the faces of political rivals edited onto the characters.<\/p>\n

In the\u00a0original clip<\/a>, father Clark Griswold cuts into the bird by saying: \u201cIf this turkey tastes half as good as it looks, I think we\u2019re all in for a very big treat.\u201d<\/p>\n

They weren\u2019t, and instead, the turkey deflates with an underwhelming sigh to reveal the dry, grey remains.<\/p>\n

Yet in Trump Jr\u2019s version which nobody asked for, it\u2019s Joe Biden cutting into the turkey to reveal Trump dancing to the Y.M.C.A. <\/em>Politicians such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) and Vice President Kamala Harris can be seen watching on.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re welcome. Happy Thanksgiving,\u201d Trump Jr.\u00a0wrote<\/a>\u00a0in the caption.<\/p>\n

We know that the former president is old and \u2013 probably \u2013 dry, but we don\u2019t think this is the political commentary his son is trying to make in this unusual 36-second video.<\/p>\n

Responding to the clip on Twitter, it seems others were just as baffled:<\/p>\n

Thanks, but no thanks, Trump Jr.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
