Anyone heard from Vice President Trump yet today?

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialDec 20(source)

Some thoughts: - love Clark - love the monster attacking metropolis (classic Supes) - fuck yes Krypto - I bet there’s a kryptonite bullet in Lex gun.

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialDec 20(source)

I started getting teary when Clark and Lois were looking at each other as the giant orb was in the background. Then it hit me that this was going to be so special.

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialDec 20(source)

I have and love it.

Have probably watched the Superman trailer like 10 times now and holy shit I’m so excited. Nice to be hopeful about something.

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialDec 20(source)

The world’s richest man now wants to shut the government down so he can transfer the wealth of working class people to himself and his companies. And the Congress and Trump have bent the knee. It’s totally crazy.

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialDec 19(source)

Donald Trump may bend the knee to Elon Musk - but we won’t.

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialDec 19(source)

@jamesgunn.bsky.social let’s do Superman movie event or screening at the Library of Congress!

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialDec 19(source)

Welcome to the Elon Musk presidency, where Donald Trump is now clearly the Vice-President. They want a government shutdown that would hurt millions of Americans. It’s totally insane.

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialDec 19(source)

Democrats should never bend the knee to Musk or Trump. They want to destroy the social safety net. Our job is fight them every single day they are in power. Period.

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialDec 19(source)

About to join msnbc to talk about the Elon Musk presidency.

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialDec 19(source)

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are literal coming book villians.

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialDec 19(source)

Correct.

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialDec 19(source)

The Elon Musk presidency has started apparently. Trump is such a loser.

You know it’s bad when even Trump is pity posting through it 💀

Tweet from Trump that says: “Really too bad that AOC lost the Battle for the Leadership Seat in the Democrat Party.
She should keep trying. Someday, she will be successful!”

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialDec 18(source)

Oh yes, it’s so normal to venmo people who don’t ask for money.

Matt Gaetz: “In my single days, I often sent funds to women I dated — even some I never dated but who asked.” Interesting…

Yup!

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialDec 18(source)

Release the Gaetz report!

Proud to support you and give a nominating speech on your behalf! You did amazing and we are proud of you. Onward.

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialDec 17(source)

RFK Jr. is by far Trump’s most dangerous cabinet pick. We should be very concerned about the damage he could do to the health and security of our communities. The Senate must oppose him.
