The United States won their bronze-medal match Thursday in the Tokyo Olympics, but former President Donald Trump
attacked the team for failing to take home the gold, claiming they are “headed by a radical group of Leftist Maniacs” and that America “should replace the wokesters with Patriots.”
After losing to Canada in the semifinals, the U.S. bounced back on Thursday, capturing the bronze medal by defeating Australia 4-3.
Shortly after the victory, Trump released a vitriolic
statement lashing out at Team USA, arguing, “They would have won the Gold Medal instead of the Bronze” if they weren’t “woke.”
Trump stated, “Woke means you lose, everything that is woke goes bad, and our soccer team certainly has.”
The former president concluded his statement by taking aim at American superstar Megan Rapinoe, calling her “the woman with the purple hair” and saying she “played terribly,” despite the fact she netted two huge goals and was the game’s leading scorer.
