Jack White, the garage rock icon of The White Stripes alongside former partner Meg White, has had enough of the hypocritical MAGA Christians who continue to support U.S. President Donald Trump. On April 13, White took to Instagram to air out his grievances toward the religious conservatives, calling Trump “Antichrist” after an AI-generated image depicting Trump as a Christ-like figure “healing” America was shared by the president and circulated online.

White then went on to namecheck a series of controversies Trump has been involved in over the past several years, both prior to and during his presidency. “Listen, if the felonies, Epstein files, rapes, bombing of schoolchildren, gestapo ICE agents attacking his own citizens, threatening to invade Greenland, Cuba, Venezuela and Iran all didn’t convince you that you fell for this deranged grifter, maybe this lil’ post will?” he writes on his personal profile.

That barrage of criticism didn’t stop there. White also called out Trump and his supporters for later claiming that the image was meant to depict him as a doctor, not a Christ figure, during an impromptu White House event on April 13, a defense that followed widespread backlash online. 

“How can any so-called Christian support him after this blasphemy? How could any Catholic support him after he attacks the character of their Pope multiple times?” he says after Trump came after Pope Leo XIV.  The pope notably called out the “neocolonial” powers’ violations of international law earlier this week. “How did so many millions of people fall for this conman? He’s already got worst President in the history of America on lock, but I’m gonna go ahead and take the honor of pronouncing Trump ‘Worst American of All Time.’”

Trump has since deleted the controversial AI image showing him in a white robe with his hand over a man’s head to resemble a “healing.” He originally posted this on his Truth Social platform following a message in which he called the American pope “weak on crime” and “terrible for foreign policy.”
