Democrat Rep. Jamie Raskin earlier this year said Congress will stop Trump on January 6, 2025 and create “civil war conditions.”
The February 2024 video of Raskin was making the rounds on Monday.
Raskin said Congress will use the insurrection clause to stop Trump from taking office even if he wins the 2024 election.
“What can be put into the Constitution can slip away from you very quickly and the greatest example going on right before our very eyes is section three of the 14th Amendment which they’re just disappearing with a magic wand as if it doesn’t exist even though it could not be clearer what it’s stating,” Raskin said earlier this year at author Rick Hasen’s book talk and reading at Politics and Prose book store in Washington, D.C.
Raskin then said Congress will stop Trump on January 6, 2025 and issued a thinly veiled threat to US Supreme Court Justices.
“And then they want to kick it to Congress so it’s going to be up to us on January 6, 2025 to tell the rampaging Trump mobs that he’s disqualified and we need bodyguards for everybody in civil war conditions all because the nine justices – not all of them but these justices who have not many cases to look at every year, not that much work to do – a huge staff, great protection, simply do not want to do their job and interpret what the great 14th Amendment means,” Raskin said.

It would not surprise me. The whole plan is to create a Rebellious conservatism, so they can state that conservatives are enemies of the state and crack down.
>> Raskin’s cancer must have eaten his brain real bad.
Where is his primary tumor?
I’m guessing it’s rectal... simply playing the odds (because Raskin is 98% asshole).
He may well be on to something—Trump is a felon and so can not serve—they will not OK the election. It will go to congress and guess what—Trump will loses by two points. We will be in WW III so no one will notice—with the draft, rationing, a downed internet, Fake news, etc...

IIRC, “Great” Britain tried that back in the day...
Remind me, how’d all that turn out? Is “Great” Britain still great?
Won’t happen. Even the unarmed Brits have more balls than we do.
Always Look On The Bright Side Of Your Life! Right? ROFL
>> Won’t happen.
Well, that’s one point of view...
They can count on Republicans to fold and the DoJ to not pursue them, but protect them.
>>>>>>>>
Heck, they can count on some Colorado Republicans to vote not to seat Trump. See, Jeff Crank.
We have to win more than a majority in the house.
Do you think American, enough of them anyway, have the cojones to stand up to their government?
Liberals are trying to create the conditions to justify mass disarmament. A few rabble rousers, as well intended as they are, would be exactly what they are looking for.
STFU, Raskin.
Repent, as you shall soon be called to face the one true Judge.
Then we need millions of rabble rousers.
The deep state would have snuffed him long ago if this was real. Hmmm lets see...make a man disappear Soviet style or create chaos? This story is caca.
Yes, that’s the only way to do it.
The only other way to do it is to drag your feet in complying with anything. The government will have no choice but to back down or really ramp up the enforcement.
The government cannot remain passively neutral when people are resisting it.
>> Do you think American, enough of them anyway, have the cojones to stand up to their government?
That’s a good question, and a fair question.
But I believe in my heart the answer is “yes”.
And the simple reason is we Americans have an reverence for TRUTH, JUSTICE and RIGHTEOUSNESS that is deep in our Christian DNA.
But that’s just little old me. As my President Donald J. Trump (who by the way exemplifies the sturdy tenacious Truth, Righteousness and Freedom DNA of which I speak) would say:
“We’re just going to have to wait and see what happens.”
FRegards
The Dems want Civil War, it’s the CIA/DEEP STATE bread and butter, the fastest path to coup. SO, Raskin is on the job trying to provoke MAGA into acting first in defense, just like the US is trying to provoke Putin into acting defensively in order to justify NATO’s war against Russia.
No, Trump is not a felon, convicted or otherwise.
As I have read elsewhere, legally he's not a convicted felon until he is sentenced. And that hasn't happened yet.
We have to destroy democracy in order to save it, right?
A leftist Jew should know better than anyone of the perils of continuous agitation of the host culture
Its conundrum Jews have faced since the diaspora and has wrought evil and horrid Consequence upon them
Even indirectly
Because that makes a lot of sense… wow.
Would that mean I could start hunting democrats?
