The US Women’s soccer team tried to clean up their mess, after turning their backs on the national anthem when WWII Pete DuPré who played national anthem on the harmonica. It seems pretty clear what they are saying. They disrespected the flag and anthem, not WWII vet Pete DuPré, according to the damage control tweet.
To be clear, no one turned their back on WWII Veteran Pete DuPré during tonight's anthem. Some USWNT players were simply looking at the flag on a pole in one end of the stadium. The players all love Pete, thanked him individually after the game and signed a ball for him.

Every woman on the Mexican Soccer Team faced the flag & sang the Mexican National anthem.
Several woman on the U.S. Soccer team turned away from the US flag – while a 92 year old Veteran played the anthem on a harmonica.
Why didn’t @USWNT show the women turning away? https://t.co/8OCa7eToZD

So does anyone really believe “Some USWNT players were simply looking at the flag on a pole in one end of the stadium?” yea, ummm I don’t think so. Just admit you are a bunch of anti-American witches. We hope you get crushed at the Olympics by some low leveled country.
