- dogma1138 10y agoAlso from the earlier story "People who followed Obama got Trump" story, it looks like Twitter merged or transferred the POTUS account Alias to Trump after the inauguration which means that all previous emails that had access to Trump's account likely to also have been transferred. I honestly wonder if there would be a way to look at Obama's old account or other accounts in a similar situation, I have a strong suspicion that it would not be such a different story.
