Jack White brands Donald Trump the “Worst American of All Time” in light of the US president seemingly likening himself to Jesus Christ
Jack White and Donald Trump have never quite seen eye-to-eye. From filing a lawsuit over the usage of Seven Nation Army in a 2024 Presidential campaign video, to branding Trump a “disgusting, vile, egomaniac, loser, child” in December, the White Stripes man has always been very vocal about his distaste for the US President.
Now, White has criticised Trump for likening himself to Jesus in a since-deleted Truth Social post. The controversial image in question was an AI-generated depiction of Trump in a white robe ‘healing’ veterans, surrounded by a holy, halo-like glow – something he told reporters was merely intended to show him as a “doctor making people better” [via the BBC].

In light of the image, White took to Instagram to voice his disdain. His thoughts centred around the seemingly blasphemous nature of the AI-image, questioning how devout Christians continue to support the US President. “Hey evangelical Christians?” the guitarist writes. “Remember that anti-Christ you been squawking about all these years and how he’d present himself as Christlike and bring about the end of days with a final war in the Middle East involving Jerusalem? Well…check out your boy now!”

He goes on to question why Catholic supporters continue to stand by Trump in spite of his multiple “attacks [on] the character of their Pope”, with Trump recently labelling Pope Leo XIV “WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy” [via The Independent]. White also included a second AI image of Trump depicted as the Pope from May last year, to further cement his point.
“How did so many millions of people fall for this conman?” White continues. “He’s already got worst President in the history of America on lock, but I’m gonna go ahead and take the honour of pronouncing Trump ‘Worst American of All Time.’”
In more positive news, it’s shaping up to be an exciting year for White. The garage rocker is set to host his first ever UK art exhibition, These Thoughts May Disappear, opening in May, as well as confirming a slew of dates for a 2026 world tour.
The tour will see White swinging by the UK in August, too. His UK run will include two gigs at London’s Eventim Apollo on 25th and 26th August, as well as shows in Bristol, Newcastle, Belfast and Dublin.
White has also teased fans with two new tracks, G.O.D And The Broken Ribs and Derecho Demonico. While nothing else is confirmed, here’s to hoping White is gearing up for a new album.
