Rock star Jack White continued his social media campaign against President Donald Trump on Wednesday with a fiery Instagram post.
The White Stripes guitarist made a post featuring various photos and videos of sketchy things Trump has done while president, including selling Bibles and gold shoes. It also included a scorched-earth critique of Trump as a leader.
“I was raised to believe that we defeated fascism in World War II and that we would never allow it again in the world,” White began the post, while admitting that he doesn’t always state his political opinions publicly or “know all of the facts.”
However, he said when it comes to “this man and this administration I’m not going to be like one of the silent minority of 1930′s Germany.”
White then declared Trump to be “a danger to not just America but the entire world and that’s not an exaggeration.”
White also pointed out that Trump is “dismantling democracy and endangering the planet on a daily basis, and we. all. know. it,” before ending the post with this quote from President Theodore Roosevelt:
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
White’s latest post came a few hours after White House Communications Director Steven Cheung lashed out at the musician for a previous Instagram post where he criticized the president for turning the White House into “a vulgar, gold leafed and gaudy, professional wrestler’s dressing room.”
Cheung was so angered about White’s post that he referred to the 12-time Grammy winner and soon-to-be member of the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame as “a washed-up, has-been loser posting drivel on social media because he clearly has ample time on his hands due to his stalled career.”
