Don't ignore the fact that the entire men's team laugh at the disrespect too.

Fuck these guys and Trash Patel's fraud, waste, and abuse of tax payer's dollars.

I’d like to see him out on the ice against them. No, really. Him toddling around, falling, breaking all his bones. I’d love to see that.

[-] Stormy@thelemmy.club 7 points 4 hours ago

He literally posted an AI video on himself in a suit playing ice hockey a few hours ago.

I'm Canadian and we lost to both US teams. Nobody in my nation is mocking either of the US teams. Honestly the women's goal tending was nuts. I'd like to see trump last 5 minutes on the ice with one of those ladies dancing the puck around him.

Between this and trump's recent voting comments, women in the US should be very concerned.

[-] Gerudo@lemmy.zip 47 points 9 hours ago

1/3 of US women are totally cool with it.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 6 hours ago

Hell, a majority of white women voters.

Probably partly because of the Dem leadership's obsession with fruitless pandering to wine moms, people keep forgetting about the Karens.

Most notable was Trump’s performance among white women. The Harris campaign actively targeted the group in the hope that protecting abortion rights would garner their support.

Yet such support failed to materialize, with Trump winning among white women 53% to 46% over Harris, with that group making up the largest overall voting bloc at 40%, according to AP VoteCast.

It really sucks. Even though it is a small majority, it is disgusting to think that 53 of of 100 white women would prefer Trump to Harris.

For comparison:

White and Suburban Men

The Pew Research Center found that Trump in 2016 had a 30-point advantage over Clinton among white men. While Trump still had a sizable advantage in that demographic in 2020, Biden did make some gains and shrunk the margin to 17 points.

So far, Harris appears to have lost some of that ground in 2024, according to the AP. White men who supported Trump made up 59% of those surveyed as of Wednesday afternoon, compared to 39% for Harris – a margin that was smaller than Clinton’s eight years ago but still larger than Biden's in 2020.

I don't understand these numbers. 59 + 39 != 100. Did 2% vote for a 3rd party?

Now more than ever, there’s a magnificent difference between the people representing the country and the people running the country.

Good on you all.

[-] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 11 points 8 hours ago

I am mocking the people who are mocking us allegedly mocking them, however

as for the men's game.. goddamn, hellebuyck again. what a performance. and those missed opportunities on the wide open net hurt. it happens... but it hurts.

unfortunately, I've literally not seen a single non-inflammatory comment from an American yet on social media. obviously there's the algorithm factor of boosting inflammatory shit.. but it's still a bad look. I have told off a few Canadians for being (unprompted) dicks, though

[-] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 3 points 6 hours ago

i am but one American so the sample size of what i'm seeing is limited, meaning the value of what i am saying is limited. we're a little pre-occupied right now to care about icey slidey sports. there's even a major part of me that was only paying attention to hockey second hand since my retiree motehr was telling me about it. she was disappointed Canada lost. she sees Canada as a nation of brethren separated from us by an imaginary border and our unlawful regime as a threat to all of the things she loved about the country we called home for 4 years in the 90s.

Didn't you guys get men's doubles curling? That was a hell of a match to watch!

Well you might not see him taking on the women's team, but you can see him playing against the men:

all the best hockey players handle their sticks like a golf club, right?

[-] FireRetardant@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

Only in the off season

[-] groupofcrows@lemmy.ca 7 points 10 hours ago

The Usians are sore losers and bad winners.

[-] FoxyFerengi@startrek.website 8 points 10 hours ago

My friends and I have been trying to get sterilized since the election. Half of us have been successful so far. It feels like one of the last ways we can protect ourselves

[-] FireRetardant@lemmy.world 11 points 10 hours ago

Forgive me if this is ignorant, but what does getting sterilized protect you from in this situation?

[-] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 3 points 6 hours ago

abortions are sometimes life saving interventions. they have become criminalized in a widening number of locations

[-] FoxyFerengi@startrek.website 21 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

Childbirth and pregnancy during the first Trump era was a nightmare, and it is again.

[-] Sineljora@sh.itjust.works 17 points 10 hours ago

They’re legalizing marital rape and criminalizing miscarriages. This move protects them from possible death and criminal charges.

[-] Mirshe@lemmy.world 10 points 9 hours ago

Additionally, a lot of hospitals and doctors in those states are being very shaky about providing prenatal or neonatal care because of the potential of opening them to liability if a baby dies.

[-] bufalo1973@piefed.social 1 points 9 hours ago

... while you can. Don't rule out that is ruled illegal too in the near future.

[-] santa@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 hours ago

He wouldn’t even get onto the ice. It would be too difficult for him to tie his laces.

[-] Typotyper@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 hours ago

I was mocking the refs.

[-] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 36 points 10 hours ago

I am pleased that media outlets seem to be settling on photos of Trump looking like he's about to stuff his piehole as their go to stock photo. Hilarious.

I am horrified that my news feed is a stream of photos of Trump looking like he's about to stuff his piehole.

[-] leftzero@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 hours ago

That picture is horrifying, though.

Trump's puppeteers should fire their taxidermist.

[-] atzanteol@sh.itjust.works 8 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

The only photos of him with his mouth shut are when he's sleeping.

[-] waddle_dee@lemmy.world 29 points 11 hours ago

"just say it's locker room talk, or something"

[-] My_IFAKs___gone@lemmy.world 4 points 9 hours ago

Works every time. For him. For some stupid reason.

[-] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 20 points 10 hours ago

What did he actually say? Article is paywalled

[-] cygnus@lemmy.ca 39 points 10 hours ago

“We’ll do the White House,” Trump told players. “We’ll just have some fun, we have medals for you guys. And we have to — I must tell you — we’re going to have to bring the women’s team, you do know that,” the president said, chuckling. The players laughed. “I do believe I probably would be impeached [if I didn’t],” Trump continued.

[-] hopesdead@startrek.website 44 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

[enragement sets in]

YOU’VE ALREADY BEEN IMPEACHED TWICE!!!

[-] goombakid@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

He's going for the record.

[-] SaltySalamander@fedia.io 3 points 4 hours ago

He already has the record.

[-] Atropos@lemmy.world 9 points 10 hours ago

Being mocked by this poor excuse for a human is a badge of hono.

[-] OriginEnergySux@lemmy.world 4 points 10 hours ago

Dam boomers really are the most hated generation

[-] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 3 points 6 hours ago

Lumpy Trumpty was in born 1946. One after the end of the Silent Generation.
