A Donald Trump-inspired celebration is becoming a trend in the NFL. Football players celebrated successful actions at the weekend with dance moves that imitated the former and future US president. Nick Bosa of the San Francisco 49ers moved his hips and hands the way Trump did when he recently danced to music in public. The so-called Trump Dance (“Trump Dance”) was also used after a touchdown by Brock Bowers of the Las Vegas Raiders. Martial artist Jon Jones also took advantage of the celebration after his victory in the Ultimate Fighting Championship on Saturday – with Trump in the audience.
Asked Brock Bowers about his Trump TD celly: “I’ve seen everyone do it. I watched the UFC fight last night and Jon Jones did it. I like watching UFC so I saw it, and thought it was cool.”
Raiders PR ended his postgame availability after my question.

“I saw everyone do that,” Bowers said after the Raiders’ loss. «I saw the UFC fight that night and Jon Jones did it. I like watching UFC and I saw it and thought it was cool.” US media reported that following the intervention of the Raiders PR team, no further questions could be asked of Bowers after this answer.
