The White Stripes have dropped their copyright lawsuit against the newly re-elected President of the United States Donald Trump.

Find out more below.In August, the Stripes’ Jack White warned the Trump presidential campaign not to use his music after a clip of The White Stripes’ music appeared in a video.

The band’s hit ‘Seven Nation Army’ was used in the clip of Trump travelling on the campaign trail, and White then warned: “Oh….Don’t even think about using my music you fascists” before saying he would be filing a lawsuit for its inappropriate use.”The following month, a lawsuit was filed with Meg and Jack White listed as co-plaintiffs.

According to the lawsuit, which was filed in federal court in Manhattan, the band “vehemently oppose the policies adopted and actions taken by Defendant Trump when he was President and those he has proposed for the second term he seeks.”Now, however, Consequence has reported that the band have requested that the claims be dismissed “without prejudice”, which would allow them to refile another lawsuit in the future should they choose to do so.The lawsuit’s dismissal is the latest development in Jack White’s long-running public display of disdain for Trump.
