Jack White Rips Trump's Oval Office Decorations: "Fully Achieved the Movie Idiocracy"

https://consequence.net/2025/08/jack-white-donald-trump-idiocracy-oval-office/

Jack White can write a guitar lick any time, any where, but when it comes to the poetry of Instagram, he has a muse named Donald Trump. In a new post, the rocker ripped the President’s “disgusting taste” in Oval Office decorations, and claimed that Trump has “almost fully achieved the movie Idiocracy.”

“Look at how disgusting trump has transformed the historic White House,” White captioned a photo of Trump meeting Ukranian President Zelenskyy in the Oval Office. “It’s now a vulgar, gold leafed and gaudy, professional wrestler’s dressing room. Can’t wait for the UFC match on the front lawn too, he’s almost fully achieved the movie Idiocracy.

“Look at his disgusting taste,” White continued, “would you even buy a used car from this conman, let alone give him the nuclear codes? A gold plated trump bible would look perfect up on that mantle with a pair of trump shoes on either side wouldn’t it? What an embarrassment to American history. Also pictured in this photograph, a REAL leader of a nation in a black suit.”

Idiocracy is Mike Judge’s 2006 satire about an unremarkable modern man who awakens from a 500-year hibernation to discover that everyone is stupid and the President, played by Terry Crews, is named Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho. Check out White’s post below.

Love this comedy. Alas, it’s becoming more real every time I watch it. Scary.

4. I'm convinced the Republican Party sees that movie as the most inspirational (and aspirational) film ever made.

that this cheap suit has made the White House over in his tacky image. It looks like a 19th century wh0rehouse.

Can't believe we have gone from Jackie Kennedy's exquisite taste to this monstrous mess.

and of course he's going to remake the people's house into a bordello. Have there been any unknown girls or women in it with him lately?

They surround themselves with crap that would disgust even a cut rate Bond villain. Limbaugh's NY apartment was just as extraordinarily crass and ugly.

and person than what we have in the White House right now. He may have been on the dumb side, but at least he wasn't cruel and heartless.

Surely someone must have burst out laughing and tried to cover it up with a quick cough or sneeze. It looks like he went shopping in a huge open air flea market and purchased everything except the velvet picture of Elvis and the dogs playing poker.
