According to This 23-Second Video, Martin O’Malley Is Totally Running for President

Former Maryland governor Martin O’Malley is supposed to appear at a Baltimore event this weekend. Is he going to announce a long-awaited presidential run? According to this video, it’s highly probable — oh, who are we kidding, he’s totally running.

(Seriously, he’s playing “Hail to the Chief” on a guitar. What else is this supposed to mean?)

With his entrance, O’Malley will join a small number of Democrat candidates in the race, including Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders and political monolith Hillary Clinton. According to BuzzFeed, O’Malley’s supporters point to “the lack of production” in this video to differentiate him from Clinton’s “slick, highly-produced rollout video”.
