You’re always up. You’re always rooting.”
“We appreciate it, Mr. President,” Al responded. “Thank you so much. I hope you’re going to continue to watch the parade. Santa is coming. Santa is coming, Mr. President!”After Al thanked them and wished them a happy Thanksgiving, Biden made sure to say he was sorry for not being in attendance.After they hung up, Al couldn’t help but marvel at getting a call from the leader of the free world.
“How’d he get my phone number?” he said. “Well, he’s the president of the United States. I guess he can do that.”
