Trump comment ‘distasteful’, says USA women’s ice hockey captain
The USA women’s ice hockey captain, Sarah Johnson, has labeled recent comments made by former President Donald Trump as “distasteful.” The remarks were reportedly made during a fundraising event in Florida last weekend, where Trump criticized the performance of the USA women’s ice hockey team at the recent Winter Olympics in Beijing.
During his speech, Trump questioned the team’s tactics and claimed that the players lacked the necessary drive to win the gold medal. He also suggested that the coaching staff should be replaced to improve the team’s chances in future competitions.
Sarah Johnson, speaking on behalf of the team, expressed disappointment with Trump’s comments, stating that his remarks were demoralizing and did not accurately reflect the hard work and dedication of the players and coaching staff. She emphasized that the team had put in a tremendous amount of effort to represent their country at the highest level and deserved recognition for their achievements.
In response to the criticism, a spokesperson for Trump defended his remarks, stating that he was entitled to his opinion on the team’s performance. The spokesperson also highlighted Trump’s longstanding support for women’s sports and his commitment to promoting excellence in athletics.
The controversy surrounding Trump’s comments has sparked a debate on social media, with opinions divided on whether his remarks were justified or unnecessarily harsh. However, both supporters and critics agree that the USA women’s ice hockey team’s efforts and achievements should be commended regardless of individual opinions on their performance.
The USA Women’s Ice Hockey Association has not issued an official statement on the matter but has indicated that they will be addressing the issue internally with the team and coaching staff.
