Penis jealousy.
She puts her personal sexual predilections ahead of her county.
I would not invite them. They are killjoys who will just turn the event into an excuse to air their “grievances”.
[ Rapinoe: I ‘Held Up My End of the Bargain’ With Trump ]
Take a hyke, dyke (yes, on purpose)
Ha haaaa! It would be great to do something as a team, eh? Well, hell, who’s getting in the way of that?
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.
The sheer self-aggrandizement of ball players is stunning and so irrelevant to most everyone else who sanely goes about their lives, and in most cases, never knows who the hell these people are or cares.
As one of the openly gay players on the team, she doesn’t believe Trump represents LGBT citizens.>>>>>>>
President Trump represents all Americans, and he has not engaged in the divisive forum of sexual politics.
Rapino is the quintessential deux ex machina for the left, when in fact she is a tragic figure whose ego can only find resolution in tragedy.
I would not for a moment say she is a patriot of America. The America she would have would meld sex with political power, and then ride herd over America as a liberal fascist, imposing her sordid values on an otherwise non compliant populace. She represents no one save for her own narrow special interest, a shame for someone who is on a National Team whichi supposedly represents America?
Enough to make any patriot puke.
I can hardly wait until we never hear the names of these entitled princesses and their petty BS “grievances” again.
This team is just not likeable. The team with Hamm, Fouty, Chastain, Solo, and Womback was likeable and clearly overjoyed to be successfully representing their country in a sport that they wanted to grow. I miss those ladies. I am eager for the current crop of 7 year olds girls in adult female bodies to go away for another 4 years.
The team should leave Rapin’ ho behind and go to the WH to receive the recognition they deserve out of respect for the 0ffice and the nation they represent.
If they can’t understand this then eff them all and we should all cheer for friggin’ Mexico or Belgium next year.
What bargain? She said she wouldn’t go to the White House, that’s no bargain, that’s a statement.
spoiled bitch!!!
The only worse than a sore loser is a sore winner.
“... she doesn’t believe Trump represents LGBT citizens.”
Citizens? Since when did that matter? What about LGBT non-citizens? What about their rights? :-)
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
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.
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!
She is one angry carpet muncher!
