Squirm, baby, squirm

Sorry to end all the Obama-era warm fuzzies but I need your help in deciding which of the following awkward video clips is the most cringe-inducing:

1) A press conference from the Clintonesque Sam Adams, who fought off allegations of having sex with his 18-year-old intern to become the mayor of Portland and then, umm, admitted to having sex with his 18-year-old intern:

2) A “poetic justice” moment for George W. Bush made even more awkward:

3) The older gentleman who really, really doesn’t want you to hug him:

4) The FOX News relationship expert who knows WAY too much about the Obamas’ marriage:

 

5) The “Batman’s Gay Roommate” LEGO cartoon (Seriously? Oy.)
