USWNT star will decline white house invite

Co-Captain of the U.S. women’s national soccer team, Megan Rapinoe, says she won’t visit the White House if her team defends their title. Rapinoe has been an outspoken critic of Donald Trump and stated it would be a disingenuous gesture by her as she would be unable to “fake it”. Teammate Alex Morgan has echoed similar sentiments but it is unclear if the rest of the squad would follow suit. The team had its final preparations before heading to France for the World Cup. The defending champs are seeking their fourth title and open up their campaign June 11th in Group F play against Thailand. RT America’s Steve Christakos joins Scottie Nell Hughes to discuss.
