I even went to a NJ Generals Game when he owned that. Doug Flutie was QB, he did wrestlemania events, did tons of boxing matches in Atlantic City, had many PGA golf tournaments at his courses.

He is very well known in the Sports world long before even the Apprentice stuff and his run to be POTUS.

I recall Tom Brady got heat once about his relationship. He was like I got first big contract when young. I wanted to buy a condo in NYC. Who sells condos to rich people well he does, I got introduced, we had lunch, he invited me to play Golf at his course, I like Golf, I played with him I did not buy a condo from him but he gave me good advice as he knows real estate. So there it is. This is almost similar. Sports people have a relationship with him outside of WH. Because for over 50 years he hires athletes and even owned a team.

One football player he is friends with had played golf with him over a dozen times at his course. He was like I like golf, he owns a golf course like once a year he invited me to play golf with him for free, he buys me lunch for free at his club, we have a nice day. To be clear any Billionaire who owns a golf course I am available for free golf and lunch. I laughed at that.


You have gone way off topic to defend misogyny against US Olympic gold medal winning women.


A silly little joke is not misogyny. There are lots of examples of misogyny, but this is not one of them.


Telling a group of men that you are inviting the women's team also because if you do not, you will get impeached is a text book definition of misogyny.

So powerful and true. Each and every one of them should be ashamed of themselves.


Have we heard from any of the hockey moms?


Not a hockey mom, but I can speak for sports' moms. They are thrilled with the win and could care less about your hurt feelings.


I know a lot of hockey dads that talk and think like trump.....lots of maga vibes in hockey. SAD! They are always berating and yelling at their sons creating more toxic males.


I'm so slammed by this because of their mom - she works in player development for the women's team, then turns around and defends this under a pretense of coming together for the country. The FBI director has shown zero interest in the Epstein case where the victims and survivors were and are women!

US hockey was bathed in a golden Olympic glow. Then Donald Trump and Kash Patel stepped in

And this is an interesting point on allowing a pedophile-protector into the locker room:

“All who work in US sport, from top administrators down to the youth coaching and refereeing levels, are required to take training from the US Center for SafeSport, which reminds them to act promptly if they hear about sexual abuse accusations. So the optics of USA Hockey letting FBI director Kash Patel, who has been accused of mishandling the investigation of the Epstein files, party with the team were not great.”

https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/feb/24/usa-hockey-team-gold-kash-patel-donald-trump-state-of-union



No kidding. This cannot have been accidental. The US men's Olympic team and staff has no media training? They were clueless as the high level of political divisiveness represented by Patel? What a waste of a gold medal moment IMO, but it seems that this is what they wanted.


Then there’s also a Huffington Post writer who is offended simply by seeing the US flag so it’s not just one group of people making this political.
It’s also not like sitting US presidents haven’t called to congratulate gold winning teams before. It’s traditional.


Traditional, except for the women’s gold winning ice hockey team that the sitting US president didn’t call (or get patched in) to congratulate. That was less than a week ago.

Believe people when they show you who they are. Kelly Loeffler owned the WNBA Atlanta Dream and is no ally to women or black people. Their mom's apologist schtick is part of the problem.

To a large extent, misogyny thrives on jokes. There’s the original “joke” that frames women as inferior in some way. Then there’s the minimizing and denial of harm. Then there’s telling women they’re overreacting. That’s misogyny, right there: repeatedly mocking and gaslighting and dismissing women when they say something isn’t OK. The harm goes on long after the original “joke”.

The American players that play for Canadian NHL teams are going to have a hard time when they rejoin their teams. Canadian NHL fans are not happy that their star players are Trumpers. It's the one thing every Canadian agrees on - Trump is Canada's biggest enemy. Auston Matthews - captain of the Toronto Maple Leafs - and Brady Tkachuk - captain of the Ottawa Senators - are getting absolutely lit on Canadian social media. It's a PR disaster.

There’s really sweet video of Mark Carney doing FaceTime with Canadian medalists, meanwhile back at the ranch….

Just saw video of them in the WH and individually walking up to the Orange Pedo and shaking his hand. SO Gross!

If anyone is on HFBoards, they can affirm the above. It is going to be brutal.

I’m willing to bet nothing will come from this tantrum. Canadians love hockey and cheat at curling.

In the end, the women’s team is going to Vegas for an all star party put together by Flava Flav, and the men’s team gets put into time out in the dementia ward to smell sh@t and eat hamburgers from McDonalds.

Instant karma really.

I think the women’s hockey team will be on SNL! Surely they will put a skit together with Patel being in the locker room?

Funny, a bunch of the women's team are undergrads returning to play for their teams. I guess they will miss this fun stuff.
