About the Womens Soccer Team visiting the White House

Do you ever notice how the minority ruins it for the majority?

Do you ever notice how the minority ruins it for the majority? Case and point. I know that we are all happy for the Womens Soccer team on their big win. But seriously. Does anybody think that Megan Rappino represents the views of everybody on that team??? So, when she disrespects our National Anthem, our Flag, and our President, does anybody seriously thing that she represents the hearts and minds of anybody but herself on that team? I saw everyone else with their hands on their hearts, singing the national anthem, and picking up the US flag that was being dragged around by these few.

So on perhaps the biggest day of many of their lives, Megan Rappino summarily dismisses the possibility of an invitation by the President of the United States for the team to visit the White House, visit the President and Melania. This may be the only opportunity for many of the team members in their lifetimes to receive such an invitation. And IMO, has no right to do this.

It is my hope that this goes viral, and that the President, invites the whole team to the White House, let Megan have her 15 minutes in the spotlight to have her say, and let the rest of the team be honored for their fine achievement, and visit our fine president and his beautiful wife. Megan can do what gives her pleasure, and not spoil it for the rest of the Team.

As in most things, again, a small minority often ruins it for the silent majority. Isn't it about time for the silent Majority to speak up, and let its opinions be heard. You can be sure that the main stream media will not give them the airtime they will give the likes of Megan. I mean really, do you give a crap what she has to say?

I would much rather see the President take the high road, and invite the whole team, and graciously honor those who choose to be there...

OK, Off the soapbox

President Trump should invite them and congratulate them, and urge that they get paid fairly. (What exactly does that mean?) It would so irritate Rapinoe and a couple of others that she would further embarrass herself spewing hate at the president and the country.

It’s an opp for the media to showcase her as “yet another” reason this President is the worse ever blah, blah. Personally, I’d just like her to go away. I was praying for any other team to win so she’d go away faster. The coach should tell these half wits to keep their political views to themselves.

The hell with that blue-haired pervert and her rechargeable batteries.

I’m pretty certain that Trump has already given them an invite.

In any case, nice post. Spot on.

No way would they agree to go to the WH, but they might take up Schumer on his invite. Lovely gals. *Gag*

He invited them - win or lose.

I loathe that “woman” as much as anyone else, but I really wish Trump wouldn’t respond to stupid comments from “celebrities.” If he hadn’t, no one would still be talking about her and giving her a platform to continue bashing him.

it’s the tyranny of loudmouth, and in many cases, really stupid minorities of all types. All you have to do to see this on parade is tune in CNN and watch they foam at the mouth, and spout really stupid opinions.

If you’re going to submit a vanity article, shouldn’t you at least know the basic fact(s) of what you’re writing about?

President Trump extended an invitation long before the final game. SMH.

Rapino is all about me. She has no concern for her teammates.

Methinks Megan Rapinoe has all the markings of a borderline personality disorder: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borderline_personality_disorder

Here’s the thought that should be placed before the members of the 2019 Womens USA Soccer Team...

You won the World Cup...The tournament is over..No longer do you have to go along with what Rapinoe said...I know some of you did so to keep team unity during the tournament...You did NOT want to create strife among your teammates...You no longer have to be concerned with that...You are all going your separate ways to your other teams...

If you wish to go to the White House and enjoy the extraordinary pleasure of visiting the USA’s leader’s home, then by all means go...FOR YOURSELF and the rest of your team....

I don’t know for sure that she represents a minority of the players on that team. If one of my teammates ran his mouth like her, I’d consider myself complicit with her if I didn’t publicly rebuke her.

Her continuing comments only make her look more and more imbecilic...He is allowing her to continue proving herself a fool...

I do...I don’t think there’s a one of these gals that would buck the message sent by their visible and quotable team leaders...

"Minority" ostracized the Christian defensive back who refused to wear the degenerate six colored sodomite flag. US Women's Club is sodomy/synthetic phallic devices or bust.

Women's soccer is like watching a bunch of spastic toddlers kicking a ball without any sense of control and organization. Add the dyke factor in and you have a extreme case pertaining to a comedy of errors.

All the females, queer and straight, will be replaced by trannies soon enough.

The left is cannibalistic like that.

They always eat their own.
