Twitter celebrates Obama hitting 10 million user milestone with highlight reel

The President of the United States of America, Barack Obama, (@POTUS) now has over 10 million followers on Twitter.

He set the Guinness World Record for the fastest Twitter account to reach a million followers and this was done in five hours after the launch of the account in 2015.

To celebrate this milestone, Twitter put together a video of some of Obama’s best Twitter moments in a video.

The US President already has the account @BarackObama, which has amassed nearly 60 million followers. However, the new @POTUS account is associated with the presidential office – or as Obama puts it: “The handle comes with the house.”

The Twitter handle comes with the office and I wonder what the engagement will be like when he leaves office in less than six months time.
