CNN's Dana Bash Asks Dem About Team USA Laughing at Trump Mocking Women's Hockey Team

"My reaction is I was furious at the president for putting those players in that situation. You're on the phone with the president of the United States. You're going to laugh. You're going to go along with it. It is a moment where you just won the gold medal, reversing decades of the United States not winning the gold at the Olympics, since the miracle against Canadians."

"The president, again, acting like a child and taking advantage of one of the most important moments of these players' lives and our state's opportunity on the world stage. He should know better and he doesn't, and it is yet another example of the president making it about him."

During a CNN interview, State Senator Mallory McMorrow responded to criticism of men's hockey team members who laughed at President Trump's joke about the women's team during a locker room celebration. McMorrow defended the players, stating they felt obligated to laugh when speaking with the president. She criticized Trump for using the moment inappropriately, noting that the men's team had just won gold after decades without an Olympic victory, with four players from Michigan on the ice during overtime. McMorrow characterized Trump's behavior as childish and self-centered, arguing he should have recognized the importance of the moment rather than making it about himself.
