I like that he was able to take over the White House Twitter account. Reaches a younger audience.

As of now the tweets have over 85,000 views, 1000 retweets and 6000 likes. It gets the word out.

I wish Biden or Buttieguge would do those about the infrastructure and climate mitigation. It would be fantastic to see the progress made. Or they could make a running documentary about it and show it in the evenings or the weekends, then make it available on YouTube. I am so curious to see what they do!
