Just say no

Donald Trump called his nominal FBI director and the US Men’s hockey team after a game in which their star goaltender was certainly outstanding:

The president decided to kid-on-the-square with the largely MAGA-aligned squad:
He rambled for a while and told the men they “[didn’t] have to worry about the weather” because he’s president, as if that has anything to do with weather conditions while flying.
Then he said the thing that set off a firestorm of angry social media posts. “I must tell you we’re going to have to bring the women too; you do know that. Believe me, I probably would be impeached, okay?”
The geuniely dominant American champion has responded appropriately:
The U.S. women’s hockey team said it is declining President Donald Trump’s invitation to attend his State of the Union address, a day after the president jokingly told the U.S. men’s hockey team that he would be impeached if he didn’t also invite the women’s team.
It’s always possible to do the right thing.
…Win-win, or lose-lose, respectively:
