Trump Stirs Up Rally Goers to Cheer US Womens Soccer Teams Olympic Defeat: Theyve Become Warped and Demented
By Brandon Contes Jul 26th, 2021, 9:40 am
The United States womens soccer team began their Olympic run in Tokyo with a stunning loss to Sweden. For many Americans, the defeat was a disappointment, but former president Donald Trump proudly led the crowd at a rally event to cheer the USWNT loss.
The US Womens Soccer team is a very good example of whats going on, Trump said Saturday at a Turning Point Action Rally to Protect Our Elections! event in Phoenix, AZ.
Wokeism makes you lose, ruins your mind, and ruins you as a person. You become warped. You become demented, Trump continued, blaming the US soccer teams opening loss on their politics. Earlier this week they unexpectedly lost to Sweden, three-to-nothing, and Americans were happy about it.
The crowd responded to Trump by cheering.

Are the women from Russia still in the field?

(101,311 posts)so it would be Brazil next. Perfectly respectable to support the Brazilian women's football team, of course, but TFG will only like them because Bolsonaro is a fellow thug, liar, grifter etc.
Russia is officially not competing at all, due to their drugs cheating, but there is the "Russian Olympic Committee" under which teams can compete (eg in the gymnastics). But they're not in the football.

(3,166 posts)These people who supposedly "love America" sure have a weird way of showing it.
This morning I saw a meme on Facebook that said something about "wanting to return to the America of my youth," so I clicked on it to see the comments. One man posted "America is lost. It is a cesspool of violence and depravity, and it's never coming back and nobody can save it. It is a failed nation. Nobody in the world respects America anymore."
Reminds me of Trump's "American Carnage" speech at the inauguration. If a Democrat said some of these things, the right would be screaming for them to be burned at the stake.

(1,988 posts)Its more bizarro world nonsense. If a Democrat would have dared to run on a platform that implied American was no longer "Great" - let alone not the greatest country in the world - they would have been skewered as the most anti-American candidate in the history of the country by every single person who voted for DJT.

DJT = IDJIT.

Not surprising that Jabba the Gut stood up there and projected the way he always does. That warped, demented sack of shit has no mind left to be ruined.

Because if and when he does cross that line, the turning will be rapid, brutal, and beautiful to behold.
