Hilary Knight, the captain of the U.S. women's Olympic hockey team, criticized Donald Trump's comments about the women's team, considering them a tasteless joke.

Hilary Knight, the captain of the U.S. women's Olympic hockey team, expressed dissatisfaction with a comment made by President Donald Trump, who suggested that the women's team should be invited to the State of the Union address, adding that an uninvited guest could lead to impeachment proceedings. Knight stated that this joke overshadowed the success of the women's team, which won gold medals at the Olympic Games.

Although some members of the men's team laughed at Trump's comment, Knight emphasized that there is genuine support between the men's and women's teams. The women's team declined Trump's invitation, citing prior commitments. Knight, with an impressive career, scored a record goal at the Olympic Games and has won multiple gold medals at the World Championship.
