Hello, Twitter! It’s Barack. Really! Six years in, they’re finally giving me my own account.
— President Obama (@POTUS) May 18, 2015
Barack Obama, the 44th President of the United States of America, is now on Twitter.
Yes, it’s really him, Obama said in his first tweet from the account, @POTUS. So now even Barack will be plugged in to the world of Twitter, to hopefully contribute to trending hashtags like #RuinAMovieInOneWord, or complain about Mad Men spoilers (well, I guess not anymore). Welcome to Twitter, Mr. President.
