Cleveland, Ohio, is ground zero this week for politics, protesters, press, plenty of speechwriting drama and a fair share of Trumps. But if all that comes with a little too much controversy for you, Bianca, Alexis and Elena of the USA Freedom Kids are also here, spreading some good ol' American cheer in song and dance. "We wanted to come so we could support America and everyone here," Elena tells PEOPLE on Wednesday. The trio is from from Naples, Florida, and their spirited, toe-tapping, earworm-worthy performance at a Trump rally back in January 2016 was a viral Internet sensation. This week, they were back in their matching dresses of red, white and blue and on the streets of Cleveland, posing with fans and breaking into dance – complete with an ending salute.

Once, at a time that seems like years ago, Donald Trump had a group of girls called the USA Freedom Kids perform at his rally. Now those kids are suing the presidential candidate over broken promises, specifically that he did not give them a table to promote their album — and, really, how hard can it be to find a table? In retaliation, Colbert introduces the USA Freedom Grown-ups. They're as peppy as ever, but now they sing about tax returns, and one of them is a man with a beard!

The legendary USA Freedom Kids — three little girls who performed at the Donald Trump rally in Pensacola, Fla., earlier this year — are no longer feeling so great about the GOP nominee because they didn't get to go to Cleveland for the Republican convention. "This is not a billion-dollar lawsuit," Jeff Popick, who is author of the song “Freedom’s Call” and father of one of the performers, told the The Post. "I'm doing this because I think they have to do the right thing. And if this means having to go through the court system to enforce them doing the right thing, then that's what I have to do. I'm not looking to do battle with the Trump campaign, but I have to show my girls that this is the right thing." Popick said that the Trump campaign did not follow through with any of the promises it had made verbally. The final straw came after Popick sent an email to the Trump campaign “demanding” that the band be allowed to perform at the convention. The girls did not perform. "We are now asking and DEMANDING for what has been promised to us and is now long-overdue (and has been rightly earned by us); that is, a performance at the convention,” the July 9 email reads according to The Washington Post. "Or, be made whole."
