Bronze medal winners attacked by LOSER: 'Woke means you lose'

Donald Trump, who spent significant portions of his presidency criticizing athletes, has been strangely quiet during the Tokyo Olympics. But on Thursday he popped up to take aim at one of his favourite targets: the US women’s national soccer team.

“If our soccer team, headed by a radical group of Leftist Maniacs, wasn’t woke, they would have won the Gold Medal instead of the Bronze,” Trump said in a statement that failed to explain why Canada, whose team have spent much of the last week showing support for their non-binary and trans midfielder Quinn, are in the gold medal match.

“Woke means you lose, everything that is woke goes bad, and our soccer team certainly has. There were, however, a few Patriots standing. Unfortunately, they need more than that respecting our Country and National Anthem,” continued the man who recently lost the presidential election, of the World Cup champions. The USWNT, along with other teams, have knelt before games at the Olympics to draw attention to racial injustice. They then stood for the national anthem.

He is The Loser in Chief. The God of all losers. People are saying that he is the biggest loser in the history of this Country. If they had trophies for losers, Trump would have one the size of Trump Tower. (gilded in fool's gold) Trump's tombstone will have one word, yep... loser! He is such a famous loser that the can get billions more votes than Biden and still lose.

Everybody has to be good at something. Trump is the champion loser.

Always hateful, mean spirited and negative comments from this slob. Every president, in my lifetime, has done something good after their term is up. Foundations. Building houses. Workshops n other things for the betterment of others. This guy just spews hate and grifts. I don’t know how we can escape this guy.
