(1,354 posts)Constituents are already mobilized and have been contacting their Senators and Representatives through the Resistance and Indivisible and the numerous Pantsuit nations groups.
I'm not clear on what Senator Sanders is doing beyond that, or why it's supposedly his army or his effort, when he had nothing to do with it. That link has been shared here but neither it, or anyone posting it seems to have any answers about how he's supposedly mobilizing this army or why he needed to do anything at all, since said soldiers didn't require his direction or his sudden interest in leading them.
It's great that he's joining everyone else in condemning Trumpcare, but I'm not sure why some here feel the need to pretend that he's deserves extra hard cheering and somersaults for being one of the crowd, and not even at the leading edge of constituent organized, constituent action that's been in force, mobilized and deployed for months now.
The Democrats and their independent allies are doing the job, they are answering the call of the mobilized citizens who didn't need orders and who should get the credit for their hard and consistent work.
