US women's soccer captain Megan Rapinoe is continuing to challenge President Trump. 'You have an incredible responsibility as the chief of this country to take care of every single person, and you need to do better for everyone,' she said.
Speaking to CNN's Anderson Cooper with the World Cup trophy next to her, Rapinoe, who has transcended her role as a star athlete to become an outspoken advocate for gender equality and equal pay, made clear she will continue to take on Trump, who she has frequently criticized in past weeks."Your message is excluding people.
"Addressing her controversial comments, Rapinoe expressed regret for swearing so much but stood by her decision not to go to the White House."I would not go, and every teammate that I've talked to explicitly about it would not go," she said.
