Former President Barack Obama gave his infamous tan suit a comeback for a segment in Larry David's limited HBO series Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness.
"People always ask me where the tan suit came from. I think it's time the truth finally came out," Obama posted to X on Saturday, sharing part of the scene between him and David.
In the sketch, it turns out David is the one responsible for the fashion choice, which ignited a media firestorm after he wore it during a 2014 press conference. Obama received backlash from critics who felt the color choice was unpresidential. Today you the entire ordeal has its own Wikipedia page.
In the scene, Obama is getting ready for his press conference and David asks for a sip of his smoothie, a request Obama refuses.
When the president leaves the room, David sneaks a sip and ends up ruining the navy blue suit that Obama planned to wear. He then tries distracting Obama by recommending the tan suit because it's "casual Friday."
