The United States Women’s National Soccer Team (USWNT) won the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup on Sunday.
In a match against the Netherlands, the USWNT defeated the Netherlands with a 2-0 victory. The first goal, as a penalty goal, was scored by co-captain Megan Rapinoe and the second by Rose Lavelle.
This is the fourth time that the USWNT won the Women’s World Cup, solidifying the U.S.’s position as the country with the most Women’s World Cup victories. The USWNT also became defending champions as it has won in 1991, 1999, 2015, and now 2019.
Before the match started, Rapinoe protested again. During the Star Spangled Banner, she refused to sing and refused to place her hand over her heart, as she had done in previous Women's World Cup matches.
Even though they are set to be invited to the White House, Rapinoe stated multiple times in the past that she would not be visiting the White House if the USWNT team wins and she added, “I suspect not many, if any, of the other players [would attend the visit.]”
However, she did state that she would visit Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) for a tour of the House of Representatives.
I would be happy if every sports league dropped the whole pretense that there is any nationalistic value to their enterprise, and just did sports.
Just get rid of all the Red White and Blue nonsense, and play the game.
Because every time they dress up their business in patriotic colors, they give Leftist scolds an opportunity to preen and posture.
I say, be done with it. Get rid of the Flags. Get rid of the Anthem. Get rid of trips to the White House, which serve no purpose, whatsoever. Just play ball, and that’s all.
End White House visits for sports teams. Its a custom and practice which has been corrupted and devalued.
Wanna bet she makes a run at politics? Creeps in kommiefornia would love her. Or Seattle. Or Denver. Or Portland. Austin?
One wants to ask her team mates...
How does it feel to lose hundreds of thousands
in endorsements?
She should stand by her conviction that the US is “deplorable” and quit the NATIONAL team. Duh
Hey! Don’t forget their National Anthem sung by another useless nobody, Helen Reddy: “I am woman. Hear me whine, moan and complain.”
That whole “team” is damned disgrace thanks to bending over for the queer mafia.
Let her stomp, kick, and hold her breath.
She thinks we're terrible people, why would we have any interest in addressing her concerns?
ugh. thats a man!!! JMHO.
Trump should invite Jaelene Hinkle to the White House
Actually, it might. IMO, Soccer is not an American game. It gained what popularity it has here due to the influx of immigrants (legal or illegal) from other countries. Many (not all) of the people who are into the sport won't have a problem with he anti-American stance of some of the players; They may even agree with it. Nike actually increased sales after joining with POS Kaepernick. They'll probably give Rapinoe an endorsement deal.
Lock her up!
“Is there a name for a woman, like the males’ Uncle Tom (which is never racist when spoken by a Rat), who allows herself to be used as a prop by and for “feminists”?
Yeah, I refer to them as political prostitutes. Of course there are a lot of other names that cozy up to prostitute, but all that does is provide ammunition to get off the topic in question. And the other teammates that did not step forward separating themselves from this type of politics are not only condoning it, but are making themselves an accessory to it as you see who gets the ink. The team didn’t win, Rapinoe did as the soccer games are over and actually meant little in the scheme of things for the US. But the destruction of the country continues and what it represents continues with her, thus the team as they are forever pinned to her attacks by their allowing themselves to be used like my answer stated. And all they had to do was step away, and they didn’t.

“Team mates” — Whole new meaning now, eh?
When Rapenis says “not many, if any” will accept the honor of being invited to the Whitehouse she making a THREAT to “her” teammates. She is saying ‘go and you’ll pay!’
Communist f a g America-hating b.
Why even be on these teams if you hate us so much?
Oh, for glory and money.
Communist kickball for dykes.
She plans to visit AOC the dem socialist. Then why is she demanding more money?
‘Just play ball, and that’s all.’
that will never happen, because it makes too much sense...
