MUSIC VS. TRUMP: YOU DON'T KNOW JACK EDITION

Representatives for The White Stripes posted a message on the group's official Facebook on Tuesday, responding to Donald Trump's unauthorized use of hit "Seven Nation Army."

It read: "Regarding the use of 'Seven Nation Army' in a Donald Trump campaign video, The White Stripes would like to unequivocally state that they have nothing whatsoever to do with this video. They are disgusted by this association, and by the illegal use of their song."

And now, Jack White has revealed that he'll be releasing an anti-Trump shirt, which has the phrase "ICKY TRUMP" plastered on the front and uses iconic lyrics from song "Icky Thump" on the back. Those are:

White Americans? What?
Nothing better to do?
Why don’t you kick yourself out?
You’re an immigrant too.
Who’s using who?
What should we do?
Well, you can’t be a pimp
And a prostitute too.

Well played, Jack, well played. The shirts will be available on 10/12 and are currently up for pre-order on the Third Man Records website.
