Team USA hockey player faces backlash over Trump joke: 'We should’ve reacted differently'

Olympic hockey gold medalist Jeremy Swayman expressed regret Wednesday over laughing at President Trump's joke during a phone call with the men's team following their victory over Canada. During the call, Trump joked about inviting the women's hockey champions to the White House, saying he would "probably be impeached" if he didn't. Video of the call captured the men's team laughing at the remark. When asked about the negative reaction, Swayman acknowledged the team should have responded differently. He emphasized their excitement and respect for the women's team, stating that sharing the gold medal with them is something they're "forever grateful for." Swayman highlighted the importance of celebrating their collective achievement and the support they've received from the country together.
