Sasha Obama: Teen. Observe President Obama's daughter in China with her mother, grandma and sister above, Sasha is not here for it. She's not here for any of it. Her face brings back memories of every crappy family vacation you ever had to endure. We feel you, Sasha.

President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama have just started watching Scandal, according to The Atlantic's Robinson Meyer. The President argues that it is not realistic: "[The White House] is not that exciting," he insists; staffers "don't have enough time to engage in too much scandalous behavior."

President Obama has revealed that his teen daughters are just as terrifying as regular-non-President's-daughter teens, but unlike regular teens, Sasha and Malia Obama are, like, IRL friends with Beyonce. Maybe we should send that trio to the really tough diplomatic negotiations.
