Discussions about the appeal of former president Barack Obama have been raging ever since he first emerged as a 2008 candidate (remember the oh-so-late-aughts sensation that was Obama Girl?) For 12 years, constituents have been divided on one of the most important issues of our time: Is Obama objectively hot? (To preemptively address the argument that this question is sexist: We will cease objectifying male politicians the day the gender wage gap is sufficiently addressed.)

We all know Obama has powerful Instagram-husband energy, which is sweet, sure, but not necessarily hot. A recent photo, though, seems to have shifted public opinion of Obama definitively over to the yes-please camp:

This shot of the former president of the United States was taken at an event for the Obama Foundation in Kuala Lumpur back in December but has resurfaced on Twitter over the past couple of days. As you take in the glory of this photo, a reminder: Obama is 58 years old. From the fitted polo to the cropped trousers displaying just a soupçon of ankle, the “I’m not like a regular dad, I’m a cool dad” Stan Smith tennis shoes, and the plain old joie de vivre, this look is an objective hit. (Much better than the mom jeans of years past, anyway.)

Naturally, whenever there’s a matter of thirst plaguing the public consciousness, the most logical place to address it is on Twitter. The social media platform was full of people taking note of the former president’s new look, and the feedback was overwhelmingly positive. See what not being president anymore can do for you? (Take note, Trump.)
