Obama’s top 5 most retweeted tweets will remind you why you’re gonna miss this guy
With the U.S. Presidential Inauguration less than ten days away, it’s becoming more and more clear just how much we’re going to miss President Obama. POTUS is currently on his farewell tour, and as you might have noticed we’ve been pretty emotional about it. If you’re looking to lift your spirits a bit like we are and maybe find some hope in the world, here are Obama’s five most re-tweeted tweets of all time. They are inspirational af.
The first one is VERY recent. He tweeted it only yesterday, and it has already dethroned all of his other tweets! You’ll see why:
Thank you for everything. My last ask is the same as my first. I'm asking you to believe — not in my ability to create change, but in yours.

Oh, my god. SO POWERFUL. Look how many times it has been RT’d: 589,965. And climbing! We’re almost in tears.
And this is number two (okay, now we’re actually crying):
Today is a big step in our march toward equality. Gay and lesbian couples now have the right to marry, just like anyone else. #LoveWins

And number three (sobbing):
Cool clock, Ahmed. Want to bring it to the White House? We should inspire more kids like you to like science. It's what makes America great.

Here’s a super cool photo of that meeting between Ahmed and Obama:
And number four (phew, we needed a lighter tweet):
Hello, Twitter! It's Barack. Really! Six years in, they're finally giving me my own account.
— President Obama (@POTUS44) May 18, 2015
And finally number five:
We could eliminate tuition at every public college and university in America with the $80 billion we spend each year on incarcerations.

YASSSS.
We love them all, but we especially love number one. We’re going to miss the entire family immensely. You too, VP Biden. Sigh.
We hope to see more of your inspirational tweets in coming months, President Obama. Thank you.
