\n\tJack White is speaking out after President Donald Trump made controversial remarks about Los Angeles and San Diego during a campaign rally in Nebraska.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn an Instagram post on Tuesday (Oct. 6), the White Stripes co-founder directly addressed Republicans and conservatives living in the two Southern California cities, asking how they felt about Trump supposedly suggesting that Iran could attack them.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cHey republicans and conservatives that live in L.A. and San Diego; how do you feel about your Fuhrer recommending that the cities you live in get attacked?\u201d White wrote alongside a screenshot of Trump\u2019s remarks. \u201cClick the video I reposted and watch for yourself. Listen to the cult members CLAPPING and cheering for this.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWhite then anticipated how Trump supporters would respond to his statement, writing, \u201cLet me take a wild guess: it was a joke, owning the libs, insert cult rhetoric here, etc.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe allegiance these people have to this corrupt felon is so laughable and ignorant,\u201d he continued. \u201cThat\u2019s right, a U.S. \u2018President\u2019 that recommended that two major cities in our country be bombed because they don\u2019t give total allegiance to his ego.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tTrump made these remarks on Monday night (Oct. 5) during a campaign rally in Grand Island, Nebraska, while discussing the ongoing U.S. conflict with Iran and the impact of the war on prices. Trump described the economic consequences as \u201ca small price to pay for keeping the world safe, keeping our country safe\u201d before saying, \u201cThey can take out a city. Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay.\u201d The crowd could be heard cheering following the comments.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe White House has pushed back on the interpretation of Trump\u2019s remarks. Communications director Steven Cheung and the administration\u2019s rapid-response accounts argued that Trump was discussing the potential threat Iran could pose if it were able to develop a nuclear weapon, rather than advocating for an attack on American cities.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhite, however, rejected that framing in his post.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cImagine any other President or elected official in history saying this,\u201d he wrote. \u201cFalse flag incoming anyone? Just wait till next month when he begins enacting illegal measures to not allow democracy at the polls to prevail when the right lose badly in the midterm elections.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI\u2019ve said it before and I\u2019ll say it again: The Worst American of All Time,\u201d he concluded, adding the hashtag #TWAAT.<\/p>\n
