Twitter announces the first person to get 100 million followers

It's a really sad state of affairs when an aging pop musician has more followers then government leaders and policy makers.

Second place is Bieber with almost 97 million
Obama in third with about 91 million
Taylor Swift in fourth with 85 million
Rihanna with 74 million

Credit to Obama though, he is the only politician on the list until you reach Trump in 33rd with 32.5 million followers. The rest of the top 100 is just vapid pop stars, multinational organizations and the odd politician.

Not really

Rarely do they respond or post something meaningful that couldn't be accomplished via echo chambers and circles
Politics is also a very depressing subject over music or entertainment or anything else for that matter

I suppose that is a fair assessment. Chalk it up to wishful thinking that I would like policy makers to be open to the public and provide insight into the direction the country is taking in a way the general public can follow.

No one outside America really cares what the president has to say.

Meh... twitter bots.

I am sure they care about what their president/PM/representatives thinks though.
