And correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t the black leader of the “white supremacist” group the Proud boys Enrique Tarrio do 4 months in jail for burning the flag of the BLM scam organization?

If she really had the character to make a real statement she should refuse to represent the USA on the women’s soccer team, otherwise she’s just being a hypocrite

she has been a drag on their popularity for several years, and the management of womens soccer probably understands that very well.

Depends on who's in charge.

Just get an eighth grade boy to do it. He’ll be better at it.

Megan Rapinoe is a communist. She really would be most comfortable living in China, North Korea, Iran, Cuba or Venezuela. She certainly can afford to relocate. For her mental health she would be better off leaving the USA.

Glad she is going away.

What can we do? Start hiring American coaches for starters. Current one is British and the prior one was Swedish. I doubt they care what the players do during the USA National Anthem.

I think Iran would be a perfect place to settle down. So this nut is so furious with her queer self and blames the world.

I loathe her in every way.

But where is it required to sit the National Anthem?

If that were some sort of standard, you could pretty much forget about sports at every level.

She’s disgusting. Gross. Nasty. Greedy. And anything else you can think of.

But her not singing the Anthem isn’t that big of a deal. Folks are just looking for another reason to call her out. Soon she’ll be gone like a fart in a fan factory.

It’s pretty cheap now, $17 for the hardcover book and it’s not a small book, around 400 pages. He goes through EVERYTHING, every last atom about the Democrap party, from the Civil war to now, lays everything out, exposes everything. I really can’t see how someone can read this and just brush it aside as partisan dreck. The guy lays it all out facts and all. What I’m getting from it is that the Democrap party has never really changed since the Civil war, they are still at war with the USA. Read the reviews......

Thank you just doesn’t seem adequate to describe how I feel about your new book, but you have written one, powerful and very truthful book that should be read by everyone who loves America. I understand completely now that I did the right thing when I left the Democrat Party after 30 years and joined the Republican Party 8 years ago. My eyes have now been completely open after reading The Democrat Party Hates America, and I am honored to own a copy of this wonderful book and have proudly given a copy to others that I know. The time, research and effort you put into writing this book, are evident on each and every page. I have all of your books, Mr. Levin, and particularly enjoyed your book Rescuing Sprite, but The Democrat Party Hates America is indeed the best one so far. It just arrived this morning and I could not put it down. Thank you again for writing this very special book.

She doesn’t have to sing it. She is required by tradition and respect to place her hand over her heart wile otherwise behaving respectfully

The team heads are required to enforce this. Anything otherwise is worthy of the country’s disgust. The team is responsible to not allow players who disrespect tge flag/country while in uniform and at an official function to not allow these people to be captains of tge team

The fans and spectators are required by their pledge of allegiance to the flag and country to turn it off and not participate

But she has freedom of speech.

Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia and Saudi Arabia would work well too.

Her behavior is a tribute to the greatness of this country. If she pulled this deal most other pkaces, she would be thrown off the top of a tall building or stoned to death.

And now she is retired, so her screech will be confined to the viewing audience of whatever lunatic fringe TV show she ends up on. And the USA women’s soccer team can move on, trying to figure out how to beat a boys high school team.

Unless the girl team finds another bad attitude lesbian with hair colors not found in nature, it will fall back into oblivion.

Do not underestimate the power of the prog.

They could read Jack and Jill and proclaim it "violent and racist."

As for 400 pages of facts and history of the progs, it would probably burn their hands if they so much as touched it.

This country is divided. We don't have much in common. Our lingua franca is English. But you could say the same about Rome with Latin. And look at what happened to them.

There’s probably little coach input on this sort of thing. This is a PR thing and a matter for management/fundraisers.

I could never understand why Subway decided it was a good idea to feature this entirely unlikable misanthrope in their ads promoting their subs. Someone needs to fire their ad agency.
