President Barack Obama’s daughters, Malia and Sasha, are still in the public eye despite their father’s time in office ending seven years ago.
Recently, Sasha, 23, was photographed smoking a cigarette while driving in Los Angeles, sparking criticism from some social media users.
A Trump supporter took the opportunity to compare Sasha’s behavior to that of other political figures’ children, including Barron Trump, Hunter Biden and Ella Emhoff.
The incident reignited discussions about the Obama sisters’ smoking habits, which they seemingly picked up from their father, who struggled with quitting smoking during his presidency. Michelle Obama said in 2011 that her husband quit smoking in 2010.
Fans supported Shasha with one commenting, “Sasha Obama is literally smoking a cigarette which is a habit she didn’t pick up until she became an adult, I see no problem there, you’ve never heard anything negative about the Obama girls so this post is stupid.”
