US women’s ice hockey captain responds to ‘distasteful’ Trump remark
AI Summary
Hilary Knight, captain of the US women's Olympic ice hockey team, publicly responded to a remark made by President Donald Trump after the US men's team won gold at the Milan-Cortina Games. Trump, during a congratulatory call with the men's team, joked about inviting the women's team to his State of the Union address to avoid impeachment. The women's team subsequently declined the invitation to the speech on Tuesday night.
