You sound like those incredible pussies and cowards on the US Women's soccer team that think going to the White House will somehow "corrupt their mission" whatever that means. As if being in the magical Trump aura will somehowTelling people they must kowtow to a king is un-american in my version of reality.
lie prostrate in front of your orange savior while he fondles your women if he finds them attractive enough.
But just to prove I'm not party of your "my way or the highway world, I'll say I like orange talking with North Korea despite what the "pre-conditioners" demanded and I like tariffs despite what the open market small government capitalism crowd told me for the last two decades.
make the Rapinoe-ites forget all their values and lose their ability to speak for themselves. Some heroes!
I thought they were just a bunch of women who kicked a spotted ball around. Turns out their are on a mission...they are missionaries! Quite literally, it seems.
That smacks of a self admitted political goal and purpose and to me, as a former supporter, that makes them unworthy of my support and any possible financial benefit they might hope to gain from me. I will never root for them again. Certainly not during this Rapinoe regime era , anyway.
You only subjugate yourself if you willingly let yourself be subjugated. Rapinoe and her gang of missionaries (I would love to know but will likely never find out if anyone on that team is silently not allied to her progressive blather) had a golden opportunity to go to the White House and respectfully yet firmly tell Trump where they think he is leading the nation astray but these great social justice warriors decided that was too risky or honest.
So like the knights in the Monty Python movie they decided to "bravely" run away and avoid anything that might actually spark a discussion of their agenda in favor of adding to the nation's great social issues wall by not facing down Trump.
They are careful not to actually forge some sort of common ground and I suspect that's what they are afraid of...that Trump might actually come across as something less than the ogre you and the team hope to make him seem.
People say the left doesn't like walls. That's not true at all. They love separating people into tribes.
It gives them their only strength.
Eh, they decided to protest by not going. Maybe they're less insane than the average poster on here who yells their beliefs into the grey walls and change no one's minds.
Either way, I admire you for not supporting things you don't agree with. I boycott the local baseball team and cringe when I hear a Michael Jackson song on the radio. U2 and the IRA I'm on the fence about.
If you boycott the NFL and these soccer gals because of their political beliefs more power to you.
FWIW, we're discussing their actions and agenda on this board all over the place because of their refusal to go. Maybe these soccer gals know they're not as articulate as our reality star bottom grabber in chief and figured they'd just give him a chance to Rush Limbaugh them by yelling them down if they said something.
Also, I'm not a rabid Trump hater. I generally like tariffs despite the Republicans spending decades telling me they were a tool of free government which breaks the free market. I also think he did/is doing the right thing talking with North Korea despite what the "no preconditions, no talks" folks used to say.
