It seems no one can resist the cynical charms of Grumpy Cat, not even the commander-in-chief.

While speaking at the Democratic Women's Leadership Forum in Washington, D.C. Friday, President Barack Obama likened Republican politicians to everyone's favorite feline grouch, ABC News reported.


"Overall, though, we're making enormous progress, and it does make you wonder, why is it that Republican politicians are so down on America?" Obama said. "I mean, they are, they are gloomy. They're like Grumpy Cat."

Then, delighting the crowd, the leader of the free world did his best Grumpy Cat impression and well, it's pretty uncanny.

If the president is looking for a new gig in 2016, he'd be a shoo-in as a Grumpy Cat impersonator.
