TBF, a few other guys came in khakis, it just doesn’t stand out as badly as the summer white pants.

At least he had the shoes right. The pants are just dreadful. A terrible cut and poorly fitted. Do they have a drawstring waist?

The zip-off convertible pants are also standouts.

This is where the political naivete of the athletes hurts them. There's a big difference between the fairly ordinary "trip to the White House" and being brought to the SOTU as a political prop for the President. They talk about it "not being political" while failing to see that they're being used in a blatantly political way. I'm not really surprised that many of the hockey players don't appreciate the difference, though.

Agreed.

Political naivete is definitely at play here for some of these guys. There are certainly some Trump supporters on the team, like the knuckle-dragging Tkachuk brothers, but others are largely apolitical or left leaning. In my opinion, Jack Hughes, the guy who got his teeth knocked out and later scored the game-winning goal, comes across as a young guy with a positive attitude who is enjoying a unique experience representing his country. Below is a video of him expressing support for the LGBTQ community. That doesn't seem very MAGA.

I just don't get why they would want Patel in the locker room.

They are MAGA.

It was a moment of euphoria and Cosplay Kash showed up. They probably would have been inclusive of just about anyone who wanted to celebrate with them in that moment. And yes, some of them are MAGA.

I always felt it was never really a party until law enforcement showed up. Granted there was never an invitation involved.

This is Jaccob Slavin from the Carolina Hurricanes. He has a daughter, too. I don't understand why anyone would be happy to be seen with Trump at all for numerous reasons, but especially don’t get why someone with a daughter wpuld want to be around a pedophile.

Slavin is about as good of a dude as you’ll find in the NHL. It’s an honor for any athlete to represent their country, win a gold medal, and meet the POTUS.

Well, two out of three ain't bad when the POTUS is a piece of crap and a pedophile.
