U.S. Hockey Goalie Regrets Laughter at Trump's Women's Team Joke

Swayman, a member of the gold medal-winning U.S. men's team, told reporters in Boston, 'We should have reacted differently. We know that.' The Boston Bruins player emphasized respect for the women's team, saying, 'We have so much respect for the women's team, and to share that gold medal with them is something we're forever grateful for.'

Trump had joked during a congratulatory call about inviting the women's team to the State of the Union address, prompting laughter in the men's locker room. Five members of the men's team later declined Trump's invitation to the State of the Union address, while the women's team had previously snubbed the president's offer. Women's team captain Hilary Knight called Trump's comment 'distasteful' but noted it highlighted how women should be championed for their achievements.
