Trump Explodes at Soccer Star Megan Rapinoe After She Says She Won’t Go to the ‘F***ing White House’
Soccer star Megan Rapinoe was asked this week if she is excited to visit the White House if the U.S. women’s team wins the World Cup. In case you were wondering, she is very much not.
Rapinoe responded, “I’m not going to the fucking White House,” thereby joining a long list of professional athletes who have said essentially the same thing after winning championships during Donald Trump’s presidency.
Naturally, our big wet president responded on Twitter with a rant about how Rapinoe is disrespecting America, and also has she seen those African-American unemployment numbers?
Women’s soccer player, @mPinoe, just stated that she is “not going to the F…ing White House if we win.” Other than the NBA, which now refuses to call owners, owners (please explain that I just got Criminal Justice Reform passed, Black unemployment is at the lowest level…

….in our Country’s history, and the poverty index is also best number EVER), leagues and teams love coming to the White House. I am a big fan of the American Team, and Women’s Soccer, but Megan should WIN first before she TALKS! Finish the job! We haven’t yet….

….invited Megan or the team, but I am now inviting the TEAM, win or lose. Megan should never disrespect our Country, the White House, or our Flag, especially since so much has been done for her & the team. Be proud of the Flag that you wear. The USA is doing GREAT!

Oh, you don’t want to visit the White House? Well, now you’re invited, how about that?
Trump was already upset with Rapinoe for kneeling during the national anthem before World Cup matches in France, so presumably her saying she has no interest in meeting him is just icing on the crazy cake.
