The U.S. women's Olympic hockey team declined an invitation to attend President Donald Trump's State of the Union speech on Tuesday. USA Hockey released a statement expressing gratitude for the invitation and acknowledging the team's gold medal achievement, though the statement was widely interpreted as a polite rejection. Social media commentators suggested the team's response amounted to effectively telling Trump to "go to hell." The rejection comes after Trump expressed reluctance about inviting the women's team during a phone call with the men's hockey team, which also won gold at the Olympics. Trump told the men's team he would need to invite the women's team, adding that if he didn't, he "probably would be impeached." Watch video below. Your browser does not support the video tag.
