Jack White Takes to Social Media to Share His Views
Jack White, known for his outspoken opinions, has made his thoughts on the recent U.S. election abundantly clear. The influential musician, who previously filed a copyright lawsuit against President-elect Donald Trump in September, took to social media on November 6 to voice his dismay over Trump’s victory. In his post, White criticized Trump’s rise to power, claiming that Americans had chosen “a known, obvious fascist.”
"Trump Won the Popular Vote. End of Story."
In his social media post, White declared, “Trump won the popular vote. End of story,” further expressing his disbelief over what he perceives as a disturbing political reality. White has long been an outspoken critic of Trump, and his latest post continued this tradition, expressing frustration with what he sees as the nation’s misguided choice.
Trump’s Presidency and the Threat of Project 2025
White didn’t hold back in describing the implications of a second Trump term, especially focusing on controversial policies like Project 2025, which could include a nationwide abortion ban and mass deportations. White questioned how so many Americans could support a leader he deems unqualified and dangerous, calling it “absolutely dumbfounding” that Trump had been able to deceive so many citizens not just once, but twice.
The Criticism of Trump's Record and Actions
In his post, White listed a series of Trump’s actions and statements that he believes should disqualify him from office. These include his impeachment, conviction, alleged crimes, and controversial comments and actions over the years. White sharply criticized Trump’s behavior, listing everything from his disrespect for veterans to his handling of national security.
He wrote, “The racist, impeached, convicted felon and convicted rapist who stole national secrets and hid them in his bathroom, who told us to inject bleach, who wanted to fix hurricanes with nuclear weapons, who insulted handicap people, called military veterans suckers, who incited an insurrection that invaded the nation’s capital for God sakes, the failed businessman who’s ventures have all gone bankrupt…”
Trump's Impact on His Supporters
White also pointed out that Trump’s policies have not benefited some of his strongest supporters. He mentioned how Trump’s actions directly harm communities such as veterans, immigrants, minorities, women, and working-class Americans. White pointed out that Trump’s corporate backers—“all those rich pricks”—were profiting from policies like tax cuts that favor the wealthy while neglecting the middle class.
A Long-Standing Criticism of Trump
This post adds to White’s long history of disdain for Trump. In 2016, both Jack and Meg White criticized Trump’s unauthorized use of The White Stripes’ song “Seven Nation Army” in his campaign, calling it “disgusting.” The Trump campaign’s continued use of the song for his 2020 reelection bid led White to file a copyright lawsuit in September. The lawsuit accused Trump and his campaign of the “flagrant misappropriation” of one of the most well-known tracks in modern music history.
Conclusion
Jack White’s recent post is just another chapter in his outspoken criticism of Donald Trump. With a strong history of challenging the political figure, White’s views on Trump’s presidency continue to resonate deeply with his fans and reflect his broader concerns about the direction of American politics.
