Rock Star Calls Trump ‘A Danger’ To ‘The Entire World’ In Fiery Instagram Post
Jack White, the musician best known for his band The White Stripes, spoke out strongly against Donald Trump on social media. He said that when he was growing up, he was taught that the world fought against fascism during World War II and that people vowed never to let it happen again.
Even though he doesn’t usually share his political views or claim to know every detail about politics, he felt that staying quiet about Trump would be like the people in Germany during the 1930s who didn’t speak up when things were going wrong.
In his Instagram post, White shared photos and videos showing some of Trump’s controversial actions while he was president, like selling Bibles and expensive gold shoes. He called Trump a threat not only to the United States but to the whole world, saying that this is not an exaggeration.
White accused Trump of breaking down democracy and harming the planet every day, adding that everyone can see what is happening. He finished his post by quoting Theodore Roosevelt, who said that refusing to criticize the president and blindly supporting him is unpatriotic and harmful to the American people.
This post came shortly after a heated reaction from White House Communications Director Steven Cheung, who had already criticized White for another Instagram post. In that earlier post, White said Trump had turned the White House into something flashy and tasteless, like a professional wrestler’s dressing room.
Cheung insulted White, calling him a washed-up musician with too much free time because his career had stalled. White did not respond to Cheung directly in his latest post, but his strong message is likely to anger Trump’s team even more, especially since he accused Trump of putting democracy and the planet in danger every day.
