My God, what a bunch of pussies this country has become, bashing the team for attending a MAGA rally. Really surprised they haven't been bashed for attending the NASCAR race yesterday too.

Warning: Huff and Puff post link

It's not like they were going to get invited to a Bernie Sanders rally. He's still pissed his favorite country lost that game.

"To us, this is not about politics or choosing sides," @1980MiracleTeam tweeted. "This is about proudly representing the United States of America. Whether your beliefs are Democratic, Republican or Independent, etc. we support that and are proud to represent the USA."

Out of that sample of tweeters, I have heard of exactly one of them, horseface Soledad O'Brien.

The other ten are random bedwetters.

The media works like this:

Jesus appears on planet earth tomorrow and announces he has cured cancer. It's gone.
Huffpo, Yahoo News, etc. go on twitter and pour through 1,000 'Wow, that's great!' in order to find one guy who is saying 'This is gonna be horrible for the hospital business.'
Headline: 'SOCIAL MEDIA BASHES JESUS!'

You have to remember that the twitterati hates America so this statement will enrage them even more.

The team and this kid (#30, Craig) achieved immortality that day. THIRTY-SIX (36) saves against thirty-nine (39) shots on goal, many of them using the tip of the stick or the laces on his equipment.

If you didn't watch this game or go through that Olympic cycle, I cannot adequately describe in words what happened. Our kids outskated the Soviet pros - the physical play was about even, but our kids skated faster and shot far more accurately.

The Soviets tried to blame their coaching and goaltending, but it was a team effort by Team USA to overcome what was, in all likelihood, the best hockey team ever assembled (possibly excepting the 1980s Edmonton Oilers).

(ETA: My point is - when you accomplish something like this, it is liberating in that you can not GAF what Twitter says if you go to a Trump rally. frick 'em. )

The Filth on Twitter are all out of shape over them supporting Trump.

Soon this will be the most hated team in history thanks to the left leaning MSM.

Herb Brooks made the game easy compared to practices and he made them believe they could not only compete but win

Yeah, they'll probably force Al Michaels to denounce his association with them

I wasn't even alive for the game, but I get chills watching it. That's fine with me, I don't need the douche bags more involved in hockey than they already are.

Libs are melting because any mainstream support of Trump is to be immediately destroyed via cancel culture. It’s a reflex at this point.

I think they are particularly salty over this because the MOI is iconic and was symbolic of our Cold War victory over muh Russia.

Until the right begins getting just as nasty to the left as they are to us. This type BS will continue.

And for modern day Democrats, this is a problem.

Bear in mind that a mere 4 years after the MoI, highly revered Democrat Ted Kennedy was conspiring w/ the KGB to interfere in the '84 election.
