LSU gymnast Olivia Dunne became the latest athlete to perform the 'Donald Trump dance'. The LSU star began her final season on Friday night, with Paul Skenes among the crowd. Trump popularized the moves during the recent election campaign, before he beat Kamala Harris to seal a return to the White House.
Bowers, Calvin Ridley and Nick Bosa were among the first athletes to imitate Trump and, on Friday, Dunne and Coen joined the craze. She posted the video ahead of LSU's season opener against Iowa State, which kicked off her fifth and final year with the Tigers.
