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?
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.
I guess this is what happens when you tolerate intolerance
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.
The is no way trump could stand for two seconds on skates, let alone use them on ice.
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.
Careful what you wish for. I worry JD is just as evil if not worse but also more cognitive.
Yeah, but he doesn't have the rabid cult of personality
He absolutely holds ideas that are as bad or worse. He doesn't have the charisma or the network to inact it though.
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
My friends and I have been trying to get sterilized since the election. Half of us have been successful so far. It feels like one of the last ways we can protect ourselves
Forgive me if this is ignorant, but what does getting sterilized protect you from in this situation?
Childbirth and pregnancy during the first Trump era was a nightmare, and it is again.
They’re legalizing marital rape and criminalizing miscarriages. This move protects them from possible death and criminal charges.
Additionally, a lot of hospitals and doctors in those states are being very shaky about providing prenatal or neonatal care because of the potential of opening them to liability if a baby dies.
The US Women's hockey team declined the invitation from the White house. So now they can have their sausage fest.
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...
Incredible how much this guys demonstrates his hatred of the USA and 40% of the USA LOVES HIM. IN A GAY WAY.
I am pleased that media outlets seem to be settling on photos of Trump looking like he's about to stuff his piehole as their go to stock photo. Hilarious.
I am horrified that my news feed is a stream of photos of Trump looking like he's about to stuff his piehole.
The only photos of him with his mouth shut are when he's sleeping.
That's some serious envious Loser energy!
He is the pettiest creep I've ever seen.
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 used to think Trump was unpredictable. Actually he is VERY predictable. I expected him to pout and he delivered.
Just think: what's the worst combination of stupidity and assholery in any given situation? That's what he'll do. He lacks the intellect for behavioral flexibility. He's just a Markov process of shit talk.
Eh, frankly, I wouldn't want to go to the White House to smell him anyway.
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.
If the women can take it the men should too. Anyone deciding to go along to get along at this point is pro-Trump regardless of what they say. Trump is not their parent and these are adult who chose to be put in this position. If they want to "represent their country" and they won't push back when their country is fascist then they are representing fascism.
I feel bad for those who won't outlive Trump.
I feel bad for those of us who will outlive Trump because you know that this fascist movement doesn't stop with him and when they can't coalesce around a weak "strong" man, they will be lashing out.
I dunno, feels like they're lashing out more than usual while he's around
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.
Him mocking anyone is so surreal. Its like the old darkstalkers game where the creature from the black lagoons insult was freak.
Being mocked by this poor excuse for a human is a badge of hono.
