Megan Rapinoe Isn't Going To The White House

Description

Megan Rapinoe was asked whether she was looking forward to going to the White House if the US Women's National Team (USWNT) wins the Women's World Cup. "Psssh," she said in an interview tweeted on Tuesday. "I'm not going to the f------ White House." The video appears to follow criticism from Donald Trump, who told The Hill earlier this week that it is not appropriate that Rapinoe protests during the national anthem by not singing. CNN, meanwhile, says Trump's White House appears to ignore sporting successes achieved by women's teams, particularly in WNBA and NCAA basketball.
