Detroit native and Cass Tech High graduate Jack White is no lover of Donald Trump.
On Monday, White and Meg White, as the White Stripes, sued Trump, his campaign and his deputy director of communications Margo McAtee Martin in U.S. District Court in Manhattan for using their hit song "Seven Nation Army," the Detroit News reports.
White posted a screenshot on Instagram of the first-page of the lawsuit along with the statement: "This machine sues fascists."
“Defendants did not seek a license from Plaintiffs to use the 7NA Works, but, even if they had, Plaintiffs would not have given them one because Plaintiffs do not endorse, and do not want to be associated with Defendants in any manner,” according to the lawsuit. “In total disregard of those considerations and Plaintiffs’ rights under federal law, Defendants decided that they would rather ask for forgiveness than seek permission, and incorporated the famous riff from the 7NA Works in the Infringing Trump Videos without asking for authorization to do so.”
On Aug. 29, Trump’s social media published a video of Trump boarding a plane to the tune Seven National Army.”
