He very much could get away with it now. None of the candidates, as far as I'm aware, have a public key published and none of them have any way of verifying that the tweet is from the account holder.

Sure a tweet from Kamala saying, "I believe we should execute all illegals" might be an easy one.

But think of this more subtle tweet: "The United States believes in the sovereignty of all recognized nations."

We need our politicians to stop using Twitter for official communications.
