A basketball for the ages: The perfect gift

How did I miss the photo that should have accompanied my post on the only basketball fit for our narcissan president? Hugh Hewitt didn’t. Unfortunately, the photo lacks a caption. I think it must be: “I tell you what I’ll do. I’m going to autograph the ball for you.”

Let us recall that among the lovers of Narcissus in the classic myth is Echo, and that Nemesis is the key to the story.

UPDATE: A commenter points out that the basketball a gift to the president, as Jake Tapper noted in an update to his original Twitter post. The basketball was brought to the White House by the players who participated in the Easter egg roll n Monday. It demonstrates great understanding of the recipient. It is, of course, the perfect gift?
