Joe Biden needed a Mariano Rivera. He’s ahead in this race but he needs to close it out. So Biden called in the best closer he could find: Barack Obama.
For eight years now the Democrats have been looking for a person like that. A person who can bring passion. The same amount of passion that Donald Trump brings.
Whatever your thoughts are about our current President, the one thing that’s indisputable is the crowds he can draw. Donald Trump can pack an airport hanger. And the visual it provides gets attention and makes news.
In these times of COVID-19, we shouldn’t want huge crowds. At least if you have any brains and care about the people you’re asking to come. But even if COVID wasn’t here, I’m not sure Biden could do it.
But Barack Obama can. He can get enough cars to honk their horns that the neighbors call the cops. He can pull Trump’s chain so hard that Donald’s fingers bleed from tweeting. While at the same time, enjoying the hell out of himself.
Barack Obama can close this out.
And he will.
Good riding with you,
Joel
