Monday Morning Quarterback
Monday Morning Quarterbacks offered many reasons for the US Women’s Soccer Team’s failure in the World Cup last weekend. The team scored three goals in its first game and none in its next three. I’m no soccer expert, but IMHO you have to score goals to win.
That well-known soccer (and everything else) expert, Donald J Trump had a different take. He sent out this comment on his social media site, “The shocking and totally unexpected loss by the U.S. Women’s Soccer Team to Sweden is fully emblematic of what is happening to the our once great Nation under Crooked Joe Biden!”
The players, the coach, the refs, the weather, the field conditions — none of those are to blame. It’s all Joe Biden’s fault. The USA won the previous World Cup four years ago inspired by then-President Donald J Trump. The Guy Who Knows More About The Military Than the Generals, The Guy Who Knows More About Medicine Than the CDC no doubt gave that team a few pointers on how to score goals.

Donnie’s tweet began with no CAPS and only one exclamation mark. Fear not, Trumpies. Donnie reserved his strongest vitriol for soccer star Megan Rapinoe. Megan refused to visit the White House after the 2019 World Cup win and the rest of the team followed her lead. Donnie never forgets. His tweet continued, ““Many of our players were openly hostile to America — No other country behaved in such a manner, or even close. WOKE EQUALS FAILURE. Nice shot Megan, the USA is going to Hell!!! MAGA”
That’s an entire sentence in CAPS and three exclamation marks. That’s pure Donnie.
Now we know. The USA suffered its earliest exit in a World Cup because our players were “openly hostile to America”. It must be true. Donnie said so.
