In a recent interview, former U.S. Women’s National Team superstar Megan Rapinoe displayed her unpatriotic attitude by calling representing her country on the pitch the “worst job in the world.” This pink-haired liberal athlete voiced her disapproval in the new Netflix documentary, “Under Pressure: The U.S. Women’s World Cup Team,” which focuses on their journey to victory.

Rapinoe’s comments reflect a disappointing lack of appreciation for the countless opportunities and privileges she has as an American athlete. Her complaints about representing the United States, a country that has provided her with the platform to achieve fame and success, convey an entitlement that is disrespectful to the countless patriots who have sacrificed for the red, white, and blue.
It is troubling to witness a public figure like Rapinoe use her platform to bash the country she represents. Her unpatriotic remarks not only undermine the hard work and dedication of her teammates, but also reflect a broader disdain for American values and opportunities. It is important to remember the sacrifices made by our military and their families to ensure the freedoms and opportunities that athletes like Rapinoe enjoy.
In light of her disparaging comments, it is evident that Rapinoe’s priorities are misplaced. Instead of using her voice to inspire and unite, she has chosen to sow division and contempt for the very nation that has given her so much. It is disappointing to see a role model for young athletes display such ingratitude, and her lack of respect for the country that has supported her career is deeply concerning.
It is important to hold public figures accountable for their words and actions. Rapinoe’s unpatriotic comments serve as a reminder of the importance of standing up for the values and principles that make America great. It is our hope that athletes like Rapinoe will recognize the privilege of representing their country and use their influence to bring people together, rather than drive them apart.
