If you are not a fan of
women’s soccer, you might want to reconsider.
Megan Rapinoe co-captains the U.S. Women’s soccer team. Rapinoe – a long-time outspoken advocate for
equal pay, LGBTQ rights and social justice in general – has been standing in
silence during the playing of the National Anthem before this year’s World Cup
games. She had been kneeling in
solidarity with Colin Kaepernick and others since 2016 when she became the
first white athlete to take a knee. Now,
U.S. Soccer now requires players to stand.
The man pretending (very
badly) to be president naturally had to weigh in from his toilet. At this point, the question on most Americans’
minds is, “Does he wipe himself after he finishes tweeting, or does he have
someone do it for him? Is is always
Ivanka, or does every acting cabinet member have to take turns?”
Despite Der Furor’s faux
outrage, Rapinoe refused to back down when asked if she would go to the White
House if the team won the Cup and was invited…
Well played as usual Ms. Rapinoe
Sorry Megan, I guess you are not Chrump’s type. No rape for you!
