Angry Jack White LEAVES and Sues Trump!

Jack White and Meg White of the White Stripes have filed a lawsuit against Donald Trump, accusing the presidential candidate of "blatant misappropriation" of their song "Seven Nation Army."

In late August, Jack threatened to sue Trump’s campaign after Margo Martin, his deputy communications director, used “Seven Nation Army” in a now-deleted video on X of the Republican candidate running to the song. “Don’t even think about using my music you fascists,” he wrote in an Instagram caption. “And as long as I’m here, a double fuck you DonOLD for insulting our nation’s veterans at Arlington you scum. Y’all should lose the vote of every military family immediately if there’s ANYTHING that makes sense anymore.”

Now, Jack and Meg are making good on their threat by filing a complaint in the Southern District of New York against Trump and Martin. He posted the first page of the complaint on Instagram, captioning it, “This machine is suing fascists.”
