U.S. Hockey Goalie Regrets Trump Reaction

U.S. men's hockey goalie Jeremy Swayman admitted regret about laughing at President Trump's joke aimed at the women's team following their Olympic victory.

During a press conference in Boston, Swayman stated: "We should have reacted differently. We know that." The Boston Bruins player emphasized respect for the women's team and gratitude for sharing the gold medal.

Trump made the joke during a congratulatory call, saying he "must" invite the women's team to Washington D.C., adding he'd "probably be impeached" if he didn't. Five men's team members declined Trump's State of the Union invitation, while the women's team had previously snubbed it.
