In a viral moment that is disturbing some on social media, U.S. women soccer players dropped the American flag in order to pose for a photo shoot.
In the video it appears that midfielder Allie Long attempted to pass the flag to forward Megan Rapinoe who appears to signal with her hands she has NO INTEREST in holding it.
Instead, Allie then drops the flag on the floor to pose for a goofy photo where 3 players pose as surfers.
Another player picks up the flag and takes it away.
You should be disturbed by this unpatriotic narcissistic behavior. @mPinoe is neither a hero or a role model. I rewound and watched the entire celebration on the field. Rapinoe didn’t want anything to do with an #Americanflag before she stomped it. #repulsivepic.twitter.com/Kevbe7jJYt

The attitude of the US women’s soccer team is why Trump won the election. It’s why he’ll win again.

Survivalist Mind@SurvivalistMThat brave young woman in the back understood the implications of what they were doing however bravo to her…
Jason Bockemehl@jmmb013Yup. At least someone had some sense to pick up the flag and not stomp on it.

Sonja Clark@SonjaClark19Disappointed. Glad at LEAST one of them didn’t think this behavior was acceptable.
