Wait… Wasn’t this washed up soccer player and Subway spoxhag supposed to leave the country since Trump won again? Apparently she hasn’t left (big surprise) but is whining about being word for her “trans friends” as the second Trump presidency begins on January 20, 2025.
Former U.S. soccer star Megan Rapinoe says she is “afraid” for her “trans friends” as a second “hateful” Trump presidency prepares to kick off in January.
Appearing Wednesday on the A Touch More podcast, the Olympic gold medal winner spoke of the sense of foreboding she feels since left-wing Vice President Kamala Harris lost in a landslide election to former President and now President-elect Donald Trump, Fox News reported.
Rapinoe was despondent over a second Trump presidency.
“I feel overwhelmed by the reality that is going to be a Trump presidency, which we have seen before – so I don’t feel like I’m saying anything new – but the reality where like anything crazy could happen any day. I think that is really overwhelming,” she cried.
She went on to say she doesn’t fear for her own safety that much because she is ensconced in a liberal bubble, but she fears for her “trans friends.”
“I think that I feel, not so much personally scared, because I think that we live in very progressive places, we’re unbelievably privileged in our place in the world and life and financially and all of these things, but I think that fear extends to just people in general that will be really affected,” she exclaimed.
“I’m thinking of all my trans friends and people that I know and trans kids. I’m thinking about the potential of mass deportations if that is going to happen, and just like the general chaos that’s going to be sown is really overwhelming,” she said.
