WASHINGTON (AP) —U.S. hockey team members met President Trump in the Oval Office Tuesday afternoon.
“I recognize every one of you. I know every one of you,” Trump said as the players entered. “Big guys,” he observed.
Trump stood by his desk and shook hands with the players as each one approached. They wore dark long-sleeved tops with “USA,” the American flag and the Olympic rings on the front and light colored pants.
Their gold medals hung around their necks.
The teammates posed for a photograph on the South Lawn and also took in the collection of presidential portraits Trump installed along a walkway between the White House residence and the West Wing.
