Old twitter account from 2016… how much will employers care?

I go to UChicago as a sophomore and I’ve been using this year to network and try to gain as many connections as possible while trying to secure summer internships in NY. I’m just worried about one thing. When you search up my name, an old twitter account of mine from 2016 comes up. 

What I posted on it wasn’t really bad, but it was a lot of political content and anti-Trump. I can’t regain access to the account because I don’t remember the email I used to sign up for it. The account doesn’t have a profile photo or any photos or anything that can be used to prove it’s me, but my name is pretty uncommon and for it to come up under it, doesn’t really give off the best impression.

I created another twitter account since then which is more professional and shows that it’s my account, so I hope the employers will think the other account isn’t mine. But how much will employers now and in the future really care.
