Don't ignore the fact Trump is insane, petty, vicious and the POTUS. I doubt anyone there wants to become the individual focus of Trump's ire, especially after the women's rejection put him in a foul mood. If anyone has had to dance around a violent parent's feelings, I'm sure you can understand.

Eh, frankly, I wouldn't want to go to the White House to smell him anyway.
I’d like to see him out on the ice against them. No, really. Him toddling around, falling, breaking all his bones. I’d love to see that.
He literally posted an AI video on himself in a suit playing ice hockey a few hours ago.
As they beat him with their sticks. "Accidentally."
One good cross check into the boards & he'd pop like a balloon...
So would his diaper.
Big smear on the ice...
What a jackass. The US team should have not laughed though.
They guys who were gleefully partying with pedophile protectors? Yeah I think the rot might go a bit deeper than we think.
I'm Canadian and we lost to both US teams. Nobody in my nation is mocking either of the US teams. Honestly the women's goal tending was nuts. I'd like to see trump last 5 minutes on the ice with one of those ladies dancing the puck around him.
Between this and trump's recent voting comments, women in the US should be very concerned.
1/3 of US women are totally cool with it.
Hell, a majority of white women voters.
Probably partly because of the Dem leadership's obsession with fruitless pandering to wine moms, people keep forgetting about the Karens.

Most notable was Trump’s performance among white women. The Harris campaign actively targeted the group in the hope that protecting abortion rights would garner their support.
Yet such support failed to materialize, with Trump winning among white women 53% to 46% over Harris, with that group making up the largest overall voting bloc at 40%, according to AP VoteCast.
It really sucks. Even though it is a small majority, it is disgusting to think that 53 of of 100 white women would prefer Trump to Harris.
For comparison:
White and Suburban Men
The Pew Research Center found that Trump in 2016 had a 30-point advantage over Clinton among white men. While Trump still had a sizable advantage in that demographic in 2020, Biden did make some gains and shrunk the margin to 17 points.
So far, Harris appears to have lost some of that ground in 2024, according to the AP. White men who supported Trump made up 59% of those surveyed as of Wednesday afternoon, compared to 39% for Harris – a margin that was smaller than Clinton’s eight years ago but still larger than Biden's in 2020.
I don't understand these numbers. 59 + 39 != 100. Did 2% vote for a 3rd party?
I am mocking the people who are mocking us allegedly mocking them, however
as for the men's game.. goddamn, hellebuyck again. what a performance. and those missed opportunities on the wide open net hurt. it happens... but it hurts.
unfortunately, I've literally not seen a single non-inflammatory comment from an American yet on social media. obviously there's the algorithm factor of boosting inflammatory shit.. but it's still a bad look. I have told off a few Canadians for being (unprompted) dicks, though
i am but one American so the sample size of what i'm seeing is limited, meaning the value of what i am saying is limited. we're a little pre-occupied right now to care about icey slidey sports. there's even a major part of me that was only paying attention to hockey second hand since my retiree motehr was telling me about it. she was disappointed Canada lost. she sees Canada as a nation of brethren separated from us by an imaginary border and our unlawful regime as a threat to all of the things she loved about the country we called home for 4 years in the 90s.
Didn't you guys get men's doubles curling? That was a hell of a match to watch!
Now more than ever, there’s a magnificent difference between the people representing the country and the people running the country.
Good on you all.
I'd like to see Orange T skate across the ice from one entrance to the other. We would get to have President JD Vance this month if he did try it.
There's no way the fossil could even watch a game without nodding off
No, he would fall flat on his ass then all the shit from his diaper would explode all over the ice
Careful what you wish for. I worry JD is just as evil if not worse but also more cognitive.
He absolutely holds ideas that are as bad or worse. He doesn't have the charisma or the network to inact it though.
or the network to inact it though.
Vance still has Theil holding his puppet strings.
While he doesn't have the MAGA base supporting him, he isn't completely without connections to big money influencing and enabling him.
Money is only part of Trump's ability to influence. He also has the RNC chair. He can get anyone who doesn't fall in line primaried. Vance doesn't have these sorts of connections.
Yeah, but he doesn't have the rabid cult of personality
I'd like to see trump last 5 minutes on the ice with one of those ladies dancing the puck around him.
Well you might not see him taking on the women's team, but you can see him playing against the men:
all the best hockey players handle their sticks like a golf club, right?
Only in the off season
The US Women's hockey team declined the invitation from the White house. So now they can have their sausage fest.

"just say it's locker room talk, or something"
Works every time. For him. For some stupid reason.
What did he actually say? Article is paywalled
“We’ll do the White House,” Trump told players. “We’ll just have some fun, we have medals for you guys. And we have to — I must tell you — we’re going to have to bring the women’s team, you do know that,” the president said, chuckling. The players laughed. “I do believe I probably would be impeached [if I didn’t],” Trump continued.
[enragement sets in]
YOU’VE ALREADY BEEN IMPEACHED TWICE!!!
He's going for the record.
He already has the record.
Him mocking anyone is so surreal. Its like the old darkstalkers game where the creature from the black lagoons insult was freak.
Him mocking anyone is so surreal.
Mockery and punching down is what he thinks is being funny.
Being mocked by this poor excuse for a human is a badge of hono.
Dam boomers really are the most hated generation
Lumpy Trumpty was in born 1946. One after the end of the Silent Generation.
Yeah first wave baby boomers
