Jack White vs Trump

[thewayne]

"Disgusting...Vulgar..."
-- musician Jack White on Trump's redecoration of Oval Office

"Jack White is a washed-up, has-been loser...It's apparent he's been masquerading as a real artist, because he fails to appreciate, and quite frankly disrespects, the splendor and significance of the Oval Office inside of 'The People's House.'"
-- WH spokesperson Steven Cheung

"'Masquerading as a real artist'? Thank you for giving me my tombstone engraving! Well here's my opinion: Trump is masquerading as a human being. He's masquerading as a Christian, as a leader, as a person with actual empathy."
-- White


I so love it when their default response is to insult people, and the people they insult are so much better at it.

EDIT: My bad. I originally posted the subject as Jack Black vs Trump, not Jack White. Bain drammage.

Jack Black was so on-target there.

Anyone with an ounce of taste would look at what he's done and be revolted.  But some people are beholden and won't admit it.  Though I expect to pre-decease him, I would be so amused for Jack to have 'Masquerading as a real artist' on his tomb stone.

Jack Black? Or Jack White?

Either way, I agree with Dewline: definitely on-target!

Trying to insult artists who have been around for a while means that you learn very fast that music critics are far harsher than wannabe tough guys, and that people who work with words for a living often turn out to be pretty good at it.
