“I think it’s funny, she claims Trump doesn’t like people who don’t look like him.”

That’s weird, I think she’s beginning to look like Trump more and more. She’s got all the features. According to her: Trump and her should get along great!

The team was already political when they started wearing “pride” shirts and cut one of their better players because she refused to wear one.

“She’s stupid as a rock.”. Not only that. She lies her @$$ off, just like Colon Krappydick. They both have CLAIMED their kneeling was to protest injustice to blacks, et al. But by their ACTIONS, it’s obvious, they’re doing it out of hatred of our Nation and our BANNER. Is it possible she hates HERSELF, for what she is and how she lives? You may call me “Sig” for short. (Sigmund Freud).

"Rapinoe scored both the US goals against Spain in the round of 16 and both the US goals against France in the quarter finals."

Which means what? Winning the game means more than honor or patriotism? The mentally ill woman is an effective soccer player while simultaneously being a disgrace to the country.

What are your priorities?

Rappinoe's stupid virtue signalling is good propaganda for our side. Keep it up, Butch!

She’s a disgrace to the nation; she has no place on the national team. Funding should be pulled until the situation is resolved.

The situation: "After making headlines for telling Eight by Eight magazine that she would not go “to the fucking White House” should the US women’s national soccer team win the World Cup, President Trump lashed out at her on Twitter."

(Megan Rapinoe does not represent) the USA in anything but hate for her country...she is disgusting...vastly unimportant to the game; throw her off the team!

I actually enjoyed watching the girls play until I heard about this. Now, I am really rooting for them to lose.

I was conflicted about whether I wanted the US team to win or not.

It's not just America-hating Rapinoe. It's how the team members, coaches, league, sponsors and broadcasters yield to her using a US team as a leftist soapbox. Why can't they giver her a figurative "red card" for undermining the team and hating the fine Country that she should be proud to represent? Since the team et. al. puts up with it, they are in a sense, abetting, are they not?

That said, and after further review, I can't root against my Country, that would make me a Democrat.

Go USA!

I was sad to hear she was injured. I thought maybe the test results had come back and she’s a man.
