The Weekly Podcast: Post-Season Baseball and Presidents – 8 Memorable Moments - with Carl Cannon

It's that wonderful time of year ... time for the Major League Baseball post-season.
And not just time for the playoffs and the World Series – but also time for politicians to talk about the playoffs and the World Series.
In particular, Presidents and presidential candidates.
Like President Donald Trump ... November 4th, 2019 ... welcoming the World Series champions Washington Nationals to the South Lawn of the White House…

"Today, the First Lady and I are thrilled to welcome to the White House the 2019 World Series Champions, the Washington Nationals.
For the first time in nearly 100 years, our nation’s capital is celebrating a World Series victory. That’s big stuff. The last time Washington, D.C. was home to the World Series champs, the President was a gentleman named Calvin Coolidge. That’s a long time ago."
