Sanders people are STILL being badgered by HRC supporters, still being attacked, still being treated as if the primaries AREN'T over.

It needs to stop.

It's not like the remaining Sanders people on DU have done anything but pledge loyalty and speak positively of the nominee.

Save the hostility for the right, folks. THEY are the enemy.
