Comment on How the Presidential Transition Works in the Social Media Age

Comments

"the handle @POTUS will be made available to the 45th President of the United States on January 20, 2017... This will also be the case for other Twitter handles, including... @FLOTUS..."

So if Hillary Clinton wins, they're planning on scrubbing the FLOTUS handle's tweets and giving the account to Bill Clinton without a name change?

Someone else seems to have registered https://twitter.com/FGOTUS (but judging from the content of the tweets there, might be quite happy to turn it over to the administration in that case).

First Lad of the US, of course.

FLOTUS

First Live-in-significant-other of the United States?

First Longtime-companion of the United States?

First Life-partner of the United States?

First Lover of the United States? :P

There's got to be a good gender neutral L word to insert here...

First Lord of the US?
