Ronaldo did not come to Trump himself, but with his beloved girlfriend, Argentine model Georgina Rodriguez.
“I am ready to do my part to inspire new generations to build a future defined by courage, responsibility and lasting peace,” he said.
The footballer also thanked Trump and noted that the president’s reception was “warm.” He illustrated his message with photographs from the White House.
