Jack White used a single photograph to mock how President Trump has turned America into the 2006 cult comedy film Idiocracy in a scathing new Instagram post.
The Trump-hating rocker taunted the president in a lengthy statement accompanied by a photograph of the White House lawn being transformed for Trump’s 80th birthday.

White wrote alongside the image, “America achieves total ‘Idiocracy’ all evidence of which is encased in this single photograph,” referring to Mike Judge’s dystopian comedy that features Terry Crews as a pro-wrestler president.

The photograph in question captures the preparation being put into the event, which Trump has obsessed over for months despite an ongoing war and rising cost-of-living issues for everyday Americans.
The 50-year-old rocker continued in an impassioned rant, calling the president an “orange conman” and “The Worst American of All Time.”
“I heard that RFK jr. and joe rogan are setting up a concession stand at the event selling raw milk and ivermectin (since they went to medical school and are fully qualified),” White quipped.

“Meanwhile the orange conman ‘loves the inflation’ from his purposeless war. How’s them gas prices MAGA folks? We ‘great’ yet? Hey at least your ra(c)pist in chief is building a billion dollar ballroom with your money. The Worst American of All Time #twaat,” he concluded.
