The United States women’s soccer team defeated the Netherlands, 2-0, to earn their second consecutive World Cup. The win gave them the most championships out of any country (four) and capped off their rise into becoming global sensations. As a result, some fans in France decided to celebrate the United States’ victory sending a message to one of the team’s biggest American rivals.
Fox News reporter Greg Palkot was in Lyon, France to cover the festivities. When he ventured into a local bar hosting USWNT fans, a man noticed the camera and affiliation. He promptly started a “Fuck Trump” chant.
Several key players on the USWNT have taken direct opposition to Trump and his policies. During the tournament, top scorer Megan Rapinoe was asked if she was excited about the opportunity to go to the White House.
“I’m not going to the fucking White House,” Rapinoe responded. “We’re not going to be invited.”
Donald Trump insisted that he planned to invite the team whether they win or lose, but Megan “should WIN first before she TALKS! Finish the job!”
Even USWNT finished the job, Rapinoe made it clear that “not many if any” of her teammates would be going to the White House despite the president’s invite.
