    Obama tweeted from the @POTUS account Tuesday night: “Thank you for everything. My last ask is the same as my first. I’m asking you to believe_not in my ability to create change, but in yours.”

    As of midday Wednesday, the message had been retweeted more than 500,000 times. Twitter spokesman Nick Pacilio says that outperforms his previous top tweet, a message posted after the Supreme Court’s June 2015 decision to overturn state bans on gay marriage.

    The @POTUS account has more than 13 million followers. Obama’s personal @BarackObama account has more than 80 million followers.

    Typically VIN bussy writing nice articles on this “HUMUN” and negative only articles on Trump. Even Bloomberg news and cnbc are forced to write articles on the dramatic change forecasted in the economy since trump got elected but not VIN What a shame!

    I often wonder if VIN is owned by the NK

    I still remember that shameful ad (posing as a VIN article), you had from the NK
