I have been bugging the shit out of all of them for days about TrumPutin. If you go online you can at least submit a message using their official website.

Call, email, send postcards and letters. Get your friends to do the same. Keep up the pressure.

I live in a blue state, but have a repubbie congressman. I bug him consistently. So do many others here. He is still ignoring us, but he knows we are out here.

Democratic voters or infuriated Republican voters. Enough calls and they might start feeling a bit nervous about going along with the Trumptanic.

Show up with all your friends, and let them know how you feel.

The R's will feel really great about it too. Well maybe they won't - but YOU will.

They know the AHCA will fail tomorrow and Republicans will be branded as losers. Nunes had it in his little pointy head to turn this around for the team.

It backfired, to say the least.
