Not everyone is disappointed the U.S. Womenâs National Soccer Team was knocked out of the World Cup.
During a segment of her podcast on Monday, journalist Megyn Kelly noted the team was knocked out of the tournament after losing to Sweden.
âLong-time team leader and activist Megan Rapinoe was smiling and laughing to herself after missing the crucial penalty kick. It was overall just an embarrassing performance for this team from the start,â she said.
Kelly went on, âThey donned the uniforms of the United States of America, but they refused to honor anything we stand for. And therefore, Iâm thrilled they lost. Good! Iâm glad you went down.â
âYou donât support America, I donât support you! And I know Iâm not alone,â she added.

Kellyâs comment appeared to refer to several of the playersâ decision not to sing while the national anthem was played.
The U.S. was eliminated from the World Cup after losing in a penalty shootout to Sweden.
It was the earliest in the teamâs history that it was knocked out of the tournament.
Still, President Joe Biden took to Twitter to express pride in the team as he wrote, â, youâve made your country proud.â
âCongratulations on an incredible run. This team is something special and Iâm looking forward to seeing how you continue to inspire Americans with your grit and determination â on and off the field,â he added.
Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump ripped the team as he wrote on Truth Social, âThe âshocking and totally unexpectedâ loss by the U.S. Womenâs Soccer Team to Sweden is fully emblematic of what is happening to the our once great Nation under Crooked Joe Biden.â
âMany of our players were openly hostile to America â No other country behaved in such a manner, or even close. WOKE EQUALS FAILURE. Nice shot Megan, the USA is going to Hell!!! MAGA,â he insisted.
Trump referred to player Megan Rapinoeâs miss during the penalty shootout which helped give Sweden the victory.
