(President Barack) Obama finished the day by celebrating the past, recognizing the Cavaliers for their 2016 NBA championship over the Warriors.

“Give it up for the world champion Cleveland Cavaliers!” Obama bellowed to a crowd of more than 100 people, including Ohio Gov. John Kasich, on the White House’s South Lawn. “That’s right, I said ‘world champion’ and ‘Cleveland’ in the same sentence. That’s what we’re talking about when we talk about hope and change.”
