Don’t ignore the fact that the entire men’s team laugh at the disrespect too.

Fuck these guys and Trash Patel’s fraud, waste, and abuse of tax payer’s dollars.

    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.

    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.

      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

      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.

          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, I mostly said that because the fantasies everybody online is having about Trump leaving office before his term is up has that one major flaw that would affect anybody hoping for it. They should probably be hoping for Trump’s continued health. Though I have zero idea what JD would actually do if he was in office. He would definitely not be as chaotic, for good or ill.

      “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.
