Jack White Slams 'Disgusting' Mark Wahlberg, Mel Gibson and More for Interacting With 'Fascist, Raci [View all]

Jack White Slams ‘Disgusting’ Mark Wahlberg, Mel Gibson and More for Interacting With ‘Fascist, Racist, Piece of S—‘ Donald Trump

Jack White is taking aim at celebrities such as Mark Wahlberg and Mel Gibson for “normalizing” Donald Trump by meeting him at public events. The two actors, along with Joe Rogan and Guy Fieri, were photographed interacting with Trump at the UFC 290 event in Las Vegas over the weekend. White shared photos of the interactions on his Instagram account while calling out the four men.

“Anybody who ‘normalizes’ or treats this disgusting fascist, racist, con man, disgusting piece of shit Trump with any level of respect is ALSO disgusting in my book,” White wrote in his post. “That’s you Joe Rogan, you Mel Gibson, you Mark Wahlberg, you Guy Fieri. This is a statement from me, not a discussion/debate. -Jack White III”
