      What do you genuinely expect him to do? Anything that’s seen as opposition can have a legal pretext manufatured, and he’ll be jailed. Sanders is one of the few dems who aren’t apart of the circle jerk, don’t conflate the few leftists we have with establishment dems

        First of all, the very basis of political movements Sanders abandoned to be a careerist, like the civil rights movement and the anti war movement, were centered around publicity through getting arrested.

        Secondly, why couldn’t he tweet about the average person mobilizing against the government instead of the people in the party of Trump? Why would he write a call to action for Republicans instead of workers? Because he knows Republicans won’t do it and workers might.
