This Presidential Social Media Exchange Is … Well, It’s Something

  • I don’t know if this is awesome or not. I know it’s not uninteresting. I also don’t know if this signals the fall of humanity. I’d have to go with no – although it’s not uncharacteristic of a falling civilization.

    George W. Bush, the 43rd President of the United States of America, is on Instagram but not on Twitter. Bill Clinton, 42nd President of the United States of America, is on Twitter but not on Instagram.

    Now, carry on with you day.
