'Your message is excluding people': Megan Rapinoe doubles down on her Trump criticism.
U.S. women soccer team co-captain Megan Rapinoe, who is publicly feuding with President Donald Trump, confirmed on Tuesday night that the World Cup champs have not been invited to the White House, but that the team has accepted invitations from lawmakers to visit the U.S. Capitol.
"This is my charge to everyone: we have to be better," Rapinoe said during the parade."We have to love more, hate less. We gotta listen more and talk less. We gotta know that this is everybody's responsibility." "I think that I would say that your message is excluding people. You're excluding me, you're excluding people that look like me, you're excluding people of color, you're excluding -- you know -- Americans that maybe support you," Rapinoe said and then she criticized Trump's 2016 campaign slogan,"Make America Great Again."
She drew Trump's ire last month when previous comments she made surfaced that she's"not going to the f------ White House" if her team wins.
