    Drew, we live in a country where if you're protesting racism, homophobia, etc... people think you're protesting America. Shhhh, MAGAts still think Kaepernick "hates this country."

      I prefer Rainbow Brite, but whatever.

      She's awesome, no matter how you cut it.

          On field accomplishments mean nothing. And nothing is diminished about the team if a player chooses not to attend. What an absolute crock. What would diminish it is if they sold out their beliefs for a photo op. That would show no character.

              I don't think you realize how tough it is on white men like Rube when an athlete he watches to escape being reminded he enables racism, sexism, and homophobia turns around and talks about those things. Don't you realize athletics is a place people like him go to get away from their consciences?

              Such a betrayal! How dare she?

                Don't doubt that people like GW, Jeb, & families, Kasich, Fiorina, Pataki, Bill Bennett, Gates, Negroponte, Condi Rice, Tom Ridge, Arne Carlson, Huntsman, Martinez, Pawlentey, Schwarzenegger, Snyder, Whitman, Portman, Sasse, Murkowski, Flake, Warner, Amash, Love, Simpson (and the comparable current or former US Reps), Watts, Scarborough, Armitage, McCallum, McMullin, Kane, Rubin, Wolfowitz, Kristol, et al. are still "conservatives." The only reason people say they are now changed into liberals is because they wouldn't get on board with the Trump worshipers and so are mostly out of a job until the tide abates. It's the same reason "90% of Republicans support Trump!"... none of the sane people are willing to call themselves Republican. It's not 90% of conservative people.

                  Why hasn't your president invited the USWNT? Can't go to the White House if you're not invited. Your president could learn a lot from May.

                      "Dark underbelly"?

                      No, seriously?

                        Again...shut up.
                        It is not respect for the team to show up to the home of a xenophobic, homophobic racist.
