President Donald Trump went on yet another Twitter tirade after U.S. women's soccer team star Megan Rapinoe said that she had no plan of going to the White House if the team meets expectations and wins the World Cup.

"I'm not going to the White House," Rapinoe said in a released clip of an interview with Eight by Eight magazine. "We're not going to be invited."


The president's complaint regarding Rapinoe's statement somehow shifted to an explanation of the Black unemployment rate and the First Step Act, a piece of criminal justice reform legislation that changed sentencing guidelines. These points are normally reserved by the president and his surrogates as a defense when the charge of being a racist is thrown at him.

"Leagues and teams love coming to the White House. I am a big fan of the American Team and Women’s Soccer, but Megan should WIN first before she talks!" Trump tweeted. "Finish the job! We haven’t yet invited Megan or the team, but I am now inviting the TEAM, win or lose."

In the past, this president has struggled with having teams make the trip to the White House, with multiple players on the Boston Red Sox, the Clemson Tigers football team and the Golden State Warriors all declining invitations from the 45th president. He is now struggling to get the current NBA champions, the Toronto Raptors, to visit the White House, even though they have already accepted an invitation from the Canadian parliament.

"I just don’t think that we accept,” Raptors Forward Danny Green said in a video with Yahoo Sports Canada. “And I try to respect everybody in every field that they do, regardless of how crazy that things are. But he really makes it hard. He makes it very, very tough to respect how he goes about things and does things."

Despite the claim that Trump is "a big fan of the American team," the president, in his first attempt to tweet directly at the soccer star, tagged the wrong account, sending one person's Twitter day into a tailspin.
