Former United States President Donald Trump has built his following on his patriotism and dedication to the United States, but he took a lot of criticism this week for his very anti-American and un-patriotic words on Sunday following the United States Women’s National Team’s loss to Sweden.
On Sunday, the USWNT suffered a shocking loss to Sweden in a penalty kick shootout, ending the team’s run through the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup in the round of 16, marking the earliest the team has ever been eliminated from the tournament.
And following their defeat, Donald Trump sent a pretty brutal message about the team on his Truth Social, mocking the team and superstar Megan Rapinoe for their loss.
“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. 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,” Trump said on Truth Social.
Obviously, a former president openly mocking a team that represents the United States did not go over too well with people on social media.
So Trump attacks the USA women’s soccer team saying “USA is going to hell!” But Biden congratulated the team saying “you’ve made your country proud.” And Republicans try to claim that Trump loves this country?
Biden loves America. Trump hates it.

The important thing to keep in mind as Donald Trump roots against the US Women’s Soccer team and cheers America’s loss
Is that Trump also calls US soldiers who gave their lives for us “losers” and “suckers,” and committed fraud against the United States.
And he’s a rapist.

Donald Trump is that deranged he’s blaming President Biden for the American women’s soccer team losing.

Imagine a former US President, or someone running for President, rejoicing in a Team USA elimination from a major world championship event. Well, you don’t have to imagine any more. Do not believe for one second that Donald Trump cares one iota about the country. #USWNT pic.twitter.com/sN9Qrll68u

This was the first time the USWNT lost a World Cup match in 12 years.
In eight-years time, Donald Trump managed to lose the popular vote twice to bland Democrats and will lose his liberty.
God bless America. pic.twitter.com/LZFEbak8ZY
