. . .and this is how Raw Story covered it:

They’re talking about Alex Ovechkin, who just happens to be the Russian-born team captain:
Trump introduced Russia-born Alex Ovechkin, the Washington Capitals’ star.
“Where's Ivanka? She's a friend. And she's a tremendous fan. Alexander the Great they call him,” Trump said. pic.twitter.com/3nPqhSz3rC

What a clown show:

This is really reaching comical levels of McCarthyism. "Trump seen next to someone who happens to be Russian."

Trump should have leaned in when he knew a hot mic would pick up his hushed whisper to Ovechkin, "After this investigation is over, I will have more flexibility"

Or maybe there is more collusion than we could have ever imagined?
Alexander Ovechkin is the captain of the Washington Capitals who were invited to the White House because they won the NHL's Stanley Cup. Other players who visited come from Sweden, Czechia, Canada, Denmark & Switzerland. Ovechkin is a Putin supporter, but so are most Russians. https://t.co/7AaaHljWJX

They’ll do an article on Charles C.W. Cooke next:
I just replaced all the Tchaikovsky in my music collection with Sousa. You can’t be too sure. Thank you for staying vigilant.

Wait until Raw Story finds out they gave Trump “gold” to seal the deal:
Check out the gold stick which was presented to the President from the @Capitals today. Pretty cool. @NHL @WhiteHouse @HockeyHallFame pic.twitter.com/9O3DT4jdgu
