White Stripes suddenly drops copyright lawsuit against Trump over ‘Seven Nation Army’ after landslide victory

Rock duo White Stripes have dropped their lawsuit against Donald Trump for using their hit song Seven Nation Army in a campaign campaign days after his massive election victory.

Band members Jack and Meg White accused Trump and his presidential campaign of stealing the song’s iconic opening riff over a video of Trump boarding a plane for campaign stops in Michigan and Wisconsin.

Jack White shared the case on Instagram in September and said: ‘This machine is suing fascists.’

But a Nov. 10 court filing shows the group dismissed the lawsuit without prejudice after Trump won a second term in a landslide election, meaning they may try to sue again.

DailyMail.com reached out to President-elect Trump’s lawyer, and one of the White Stripes’ lawyers said they were unable to comment.

Shortly after Trump staffer Margo McAtee shared the since-deleted video with X on Aug. 29, Jack harshly criticized the presidential candidate for using his song.

‘Oh…. Don’t even think about using my music, you fascists. There’s a lawsuit coming from my lawyers regarding this (in addition to your other 5k).

‘Have a great day at work today, Margo Martin. And double damn you for insulting our nation’s veterans in Arlington while I’m here, DonOLD.

‘You should lose every military family’s vote immediately if it makes any sense anymore,’ Jack wrote.

The lawsuit, filed in federal court in Manhattan, stated that the band also objected to Trump’s use of the song because members Jack and Meg “strongly oppose the policies adopted and actions taken by Defendant Trump while he was President and the policies he proposed for the presidency.” He wants a second term.”

Many prominent musicians have previously criticized Trump for using their songs at rallies.

In October, singer Rufus Wainwright’s cover of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” from the Shrek 2 soundtrack was played at a Trump town hall.

Wainwright condemned Trump and confirmed that Cohen’s estate had sent a cease and desist letter to the campaign.

In September, a judge in Atlanta ordered Trump and his campaign to stop using the song “Hold On, I’m Coming” after the family of one of the song’s writers filed a lawsuit against the former president over the song’s use.

The estate of singer and composer Isaac Hayes Jr. filed a lawsuit last month alleging that Trump, his campaign and some of his allies violated his copyright and must pay damages.

U.S. District Judge Thomas Thrash ruled that Trump must stop using the song, but denied the campaign’s request to force him to remove existing videos featuring the song.
