Commentators and speculators have been busy attempting to identify its rider.  It is tempting to identify him with the Rider of the white horse in Revelation 19:11.  Tempting but the two riders are clearly different persons. 

A crown given indicates that he overcomes with the approval of God, because it is fitting in with His plans.  It does not mean that God approves of all his acts and motives, but that He permits his performance and may even work in the background to assist in causing things to fall in place based on prayers of genuine Christ follower’s prayers of intercession.

Shortly after this rider has established a peaceful period, the rider of the red horse makes an end to it.

My use of the term “shortly” reflects an indefinite time frame.  I don’t currently have an insight as to how long the white horse’s peace will last.

President Trump may very well be the rider of the white horse while Joe Biden was a foreshadowing of the one who will actually be the rider of the red horse.

Fortunately, Joe was rather low energy and took lots of “vacation time” while he was occupying the oval office thereby limiting the amount of damage he was able to do.

Trump was miraculously spared by the hand of God from assassination attempts for such a time as this.
