Sue Bird writes an op-ed in defense of her superstar girlfriend, Megan Rapinoe.

WNBA player Sue Bird is defending her girlfriend, Megan Rapinoe after Donald Trump criticized the U.S. Women’s Soccer team star for refusing to go to the White House.

The basketball player went on to say that the scary part of having the president speak out was actually the reaction to his response, which was outrage in the form of other tweets, blog posts and even takedowns of Rapinoe on Fox News. Still, it all made Bird wonder if there’s “nothing better demanding [Trump’s] attention.”Despite Bird’s own visceral reaction, she said that Rapinoe didn’t have the same response to the criticism.

At that moment, Bird writes that she “was everyone” when she felt happy, crazy, proud, American, and “in love with Megan Rapinoe.” And ahead of Tuesday’s Semifinals, people are appreciating Bird’s open expression of love and pride. — JimmyG July 2, 2019 Oh my god. This article is incredible. Sue is incredible. And, of course, so is @mPinoe!— Justine Larbalestier July 2, 2019 Others criticized the piece and said that Trump never expressed hate toward Rapinoe, but that it was the other way around.— Vaughn Fry July 2, 2019 Love this team and hope they win it. That said, the president only said she should respect the flag, wasn’t nearly the ‘slam’ ppl are making it out to be and he invited them win or lose.
