Amazing New Feud Alert: The White Stripes v Donald Trump

Donald Trump: Uniting divorced couples and ex-band mates in mutual rage since 2015.

When Jack and Meg White announced they were breaking up the band – and all of our hearts - back in 2011, we immediately began wondering when they would come to their senses and collaborate again.

Only in our wildest dreams could we have imagined that they’d join forces, five years later, to make fun of Donald Trump.

The White Stripes were rankled by Trump when a pro-Donald video emerged using their classic tune “Seven Nation Army” on the soundtrack.

They took to Facebook to distance themselves from the Republican presidential nominee.

Oh, but that’s not all.

Today, on the Instagram of Jack White’s label Third Man Records, emerged new #AntiTrump White Stripes merch.

Icky Thump, you’ll recall, was their final album, released in 2007.

The back of the shirt features lyrics from the records’ title song – though “white” has been helpfully added to the first line, for clarity.

The shirt is going for $US25 at the Third Man Store. Though it was just made available for pre order today, the website already says buyers should expect “shipping delays” on account of “increasing demand”. Maybe yours will just arrive for the November election…

Please, please, let Jack and Meg join this Sunday's debate.
