Consider adding @POTUS #17

Could look at @POTUS's tweets in addition to @realDonaldTrump's.

Possibly only those that end in "-DJT".

maxbbraun commented 7 years ago

After some analysis I doubt that the claim "Tweets by #POTUS signed -DJT" is true. At least some of them aren't coming from an Android phone and use image attachments, both of which are uncharacteristic for Trump. I'm calling "alternative fact" on that one.

I wonder now if it makes more sense to restrict the tweets to just Trump's own rather than expanding them to POTUS. E.g. just ignore them if they come from an iPhone, use image attachments, tag locations, etc.

@maxbbraun That's a fair point. Also a cursory glance of the POTUS tweets seems to indicate that he doesn't post things exclusively on that account at this time.
