Trump tells the US men's hockey team he's going to begrudgingly invite the women's gold-winning team to the White House,

There are only a few people in this world that I would like to punch more than dumpy trumpy!!


Trump tells the US men’s hockey team he’s going to begrudgingly invite the women’s gold-winning team to the White House, too, or else he’ll be impeached. The male players then laugh at the idea that the women would be included.

He is a disgrace to America and seems to get away with his openly offensive remarks.

What have we become over the last 50 years?

The mother of the guy who scored the game-winning goal, and whose brother scored it in the previous game is a development coach for the USA women's team. If they were laughing at Trump's "joke," she needs to kick their asses into the next century.

I'm sure they all already hate him, not just for his misogyny, but also for the way he treats the LGBQT community, of which some of them belong, including their captain.

And Kash Patel was right there.

This reality host president has learned quite a bit about embedding himself into everyone's lives through digital means.

Shocked at not a modicum of respect.

And dumpy saying they do not have to worry about snow, cuz he is prez? In other words, he does not care about the safety of the team. He thought he was being BMOC, but he was showing how much he does not care about them!

I have no respect for anyone on that team. Glad to see they are American loving boys - I had no idea the corona beer they were celebrating with was from our country. Stupid me thought it was Mexican beer!

Everyone knew it was a joke. Let's not drag them, please. I seriously doubt you'll see any of our elected leaders dragging them. It would be a huge election-losing mistake.

The gold medal–winning U.S. women’s hockey team has declined an invitation to attend President Donald Trump’s upcoming State of the Union address, citing prior commitments.

A spokesperson for USA Hockey confirmed that the team was invited to the event but would be unable to attend due to scheduling conflicts. The statement emphasized the players’ appreciation for the recognition while making clear that existing obligations would prevent their participation .




“We are sincerely grateful for the invitation extended to our gold medal–winning U.S. Women’s Hockey Team and deeply appreciate the recognition of their extraordinary achievement,” the spokesperson said. “They were honored to be included and are grateful for the acknowledgment.”

but in the US it's become a wealthy white boy sport. Of course they have to act like 8 year old boys when Trump acts like an 8 year old boy.

Glad the women's team had scheduling conflicts.

Hockey is pretty much full MAGA at this point. It's sad to see what's become of it.
