Chuck Todd to Rapinoe: How do you ‘preach unity’ but snub Trump?

Published July 14, 2019 6:55pm ET



Meet The Press host Chuck Todd asked U.S. women’s soccer star Megan Rapinoe how she balances preaching unity while also avoiding President Trump during her appearance on the show Sunday.

Rapinoe made headlines throughout the Women’s World Cup and since their victory for bashing the president, saying she was “not going to the f—— White House” if they were to win World Cup. Trump responded to the comments, saying that they should win the tournament before commenting on whether or not she would attend a visit to the White House. Since the team’s victory, she and some of her teammates have made it clear that they don’t plan on attending a White House visit if an invitation comes.
