Former President Donald Trump reportedly called the United States Women’s National Soccer Team (USWNT) ahead of their first match in the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup. The call took place shortly before the team’s decisive 3-0 victory against Paraguay. Details of the conversation have not been publicly released. This outreach occurred despite a previously strained relationship between Trump and some players, particularly Megan Rapinoe, who had publicly opposed his presidency. The gesture suggests a potential attempt at reconciliation or support for the team during the international competition. The USWNT is currently competing in the World Cup, aiming for a third consecutive championship title.
