THIS HAS TO BE THE MOST AWKWARD EMBRACE EVER!
They say a picture is worth a thousand words but this gaffe leaves me speechless. I’m not certain what President Obama was thinking when his arm was raised by Cuban President Raul Castro. It was almost as if his left arm tried to play possum. The result was so awkward I cringe every time I see the picture. It’s just weird and of course the memes and jokes were soon to follow..
Painful to watch. What was that, scarecrow arm? Obama didn’t want his arm lifted, so he went limp wrist. https://t.co/4JFVZmcaFS
