In Warren, Michigan, Bernie Sanders, despite not running for president again at 83 years old, has become a prominent figure in the resistance against Donald Trump’s second presidency. Sanders is leading a national campaign to rally against Trump’s policies, drawing large crowds in swing districts represented by Republicans. His efforts are seen as filling a leadership void within the Democratic Party, where there has been a lack of a centralized movement to organize the anti-Trump resistance.
