The White House Twitter account announced earlier Monday to be on the lookout for a “special video message from the president.”

“It looks like you were expecting somebody else.”

Indeed. It was Robby Novak, who plays “Kid President” in a series of popular YouTube videos. “April Fools’ on all of you all,” he said.
