Submitted by MAGA

The growing rift between art and politics reached a new milestone as the White Stripes dropped their lawsuit against President-elect Donald Trump regarding the use of their song "Seven Nation Army" in a campaign video.

Originally filed in September, the suit ignited controversy after Trump's team used the track in a promotional video last summer featuring the GOP candidate boarding his private jet.

Jack White, the band's frontman, had taken to social media to express outrage, labeling the former President a "fascist" and vowing to pursue legal action.

However, in a surprising turn, the band filed a motion to dismiss the case “without prejudice,” allowing them the option to revive their complaint in the future.


The outcome comes amidst a wider trend where various artists have attempted to leverage their music for political alignment, often aligned against Donald Trump.

The band’s lawsuit, like many others from artists opposing Trump, reflected a significant cultural pushback from the left, further fueling the perception that the entertainment industry is increasingly intertwined with political ideology.

Yet, the dismissal might suggest a recognition that engaging in legal battles may not yield the desired impact, especially as Trump gears up for another term in office.

With Trump's popularity amongst his base remaining robust, this development raises questions about the ability of celebrities to dictate the narrative and influence the political landscape.

As the political arena gears up for the next phase of this contentious election cycle, it remains to be seen how artists and entertainers will navigate the dual pressures of creative freedom and political affiliation.

President-elect Trump's victory, marked by the opposition and backlash from various sectors, underscores a resilient coalition among his supporters, signaling a potential re-examination of the relationship between popular culture and politics in the years to come.
