Trump has bent over backwards for homosexuals.

That's the problem. They want him to bend over forwards …

This is not a battle.
This is a personal choice based on politics.
In my opinion its a opportunity for grandstanding on the part ofthese players who refuse to take an oppertunity to speak to someone who could make achange

Correcto-mundo!

And someone needs to inform this funny haired dyke that competence at running and kicking a ball does not put her anywhere near the level of negotiating as a peer with the President of the United States. In short, the bitch needs to learn her place and bear in mind that in 20 years Trump’s name will be memorialized all across the land and no one will even remember hers.

As many of you keep flaming me because I am unabashed in my support for the Women’s Soccer team, and frankly, all USA National Teams, I have on several occasions explained how I am a team first person, and how I root for the TEAM, not any of the individuals on the team, but the team as a whole. Megan Rapino, in this article provides a perferct example of what I am talking about when it is about the team or the individual. For Rapino everything is about her, she is not a good teammate at all, read her quotes, it’s all about her. Winning the world cup was her holding up her part of the bargain etc...etc... There is no question she is a loathsome individual. When you’re part of a team one has to subordinate ones personal interests for the good of the team, and thus for the team to the best chance of winning every player has to be willing to that. Personally, if I were a player on the soccer team, by now I would have given Rapino and any other asshole that had to bring their politics a serious piece of my mind. But I would not have done it in the run up to the world cup or while the competition was ongoing because that would not have been in the teams best interests.

Trump has bent over backwards for homosexuals. He supports “gay marriage.” He has never, ever been critical of them, or especially their politicization. Yet they treat him like crap.


Ah, but you’re forgetting his ban of ‘transgenders’ in the military, who had been allowed to openly serve for the last month or two of the Obama administration. The fact that they like diabetics can’t be deployed because of their medical needs is irrelevant.

Yeah, it’s just TDS. They constantly hear from their echo chamber that he’s a racist, sexist, islamophobic, homophobe.

What is lost on her is that he should represent *everyone equally*. Does she think the LGBT crowd should have special representation?

These types assume that the bigot is the other person when the true bigotry lies within themselves.

...she doesn't believe Trump represents LGBT citizens.

Uhhhhh, exactly what would one have to do to represent LGBT citizens. Ack! Forget it! I don't want to know.

Being gay is what you do, not who you are.

For God’s sake, just let it go and if you don’t like America, feel free to leave.

There are many muslim countries you can move to that will make you appreciate the freedoms you have here and the leader at our helm.

Just make sure you cover your head, don’t wear shorts and for the sake of Pete, don’t tell them you are gay!

Trump ran a more pro-LGBT campaign than Obama did, sweetheart.

I agree, she is a selfish bitch and that’s about the best that can be said of her. I just hope Soccer USA does something about this situation. If the players cannot show respect to the President, no matter who it is, and respect for our country by honoring our Flag and Anthem, then they should not be wearing the Red, White and Blue. And if Soccer USA instead supports that kind of crap, then something will have to be done about defunding USA Soccer.

Julie Foudy expects that there are "a couple" of people on the team who do believe they should visit the White House, but it needs to be a collective decision.

There will be no "Collective" decision since the dictator Rapinoe has already spoken for them.........

As evidenced in the semi-finals where she sat out, she was not a factor in their victories but yet all the accolades have been thrown on her.

Her political BS has done more to hurt this women's team than her personal contribution.

She should have been kicked off the team with her first anti-American exhibition..........

Here is a thought exercise:

Will a transgender woman get equal pay to the men if the transgender woman was once on the men’s team before transitioning? Or will ‘she’ have to take a pay cut?

‘Enquiring’ minds want to know

Dropping the flag and stepping on it ices the whole matter for me.

They’re dirt who don’t deserve a WH invitation. No different than Jane Fonda. If Megyn dislikes PDJT, that’s her business. Dishonoring the flag dishonors the whole country.
