Troye Sivan’s ‘Make America Gay Again’ tweet and a dreamy party in ‘Youth’
Troye Sivan’s latest video “Youth” takes a jibe at Donald Trump’s now-famous line, “Make America Great Again.” Sivan, in the video, shows a cap with the line “Make America Gay Again,” clearly expressing his sexuality in a unique way. “Youth” is a breezy video clip that has care bears, blanket forts and alcohol. Young people are seen dancing and having fun in the video that looks like more of a dream sequence.

The tweet has already received more than 37,000 likes and 25,000 retweets.
The video takes viewers inside a foggy, neon-filled house party where piercings, alcohol and sex are all the rage. According to MTV News, the video “ultimately feels like a marriage of maturity and recklessness.” Troye sings about loving hard and not caring about the consequences.
Troye also shared a photo of him and his “princess” Amandla Stenberg. She is an actress who made a cameo at the party.
