WATCH: Elderly White People Dancing at Matt Gaetz Rally to Queen Rock Anthem Endure Cruel Mockery on Twitter
A crowd of elderly supporters were captured on video dancing to a famous Queen song while awaiting the start of an “America First” rally featuring congress members Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene, and were then cruelly mocked on Twitter.
Gaetz and Greene kicked off their “America First” tour — the name of which recalls their brief flirtation with starting a group that was derided as the “White Supremacy Caucus” — with a rally at the famous Florida retirement community “The Villages” on Friday, but it was the pre-game festivities that drew attention.
In video posted by Fox News Multimedia Reporter Robert Sherman, revelers can be seen randomly swaying their arms to the strains of “We Are the Champions” and generally having a good old time.
The clip went viral, and became the subject of cruel mockery by media figures, celebrities, and other verified Twitter users — some of which centered on the crowd’s age and whiteness.

The fact that the Greatest Generation gave birth to the Worst Generation kind of negates them being the greatest, yeah? https://t.co/4MpyP3P5cc
