resurfaced video shows Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) unveiling a plan for Congress to implement “civil war conditions” and disqualify former President Donald Trump if he wins the November presidential election.
According to Legal Insurrection, Raskin’s comments were given in February during an appearance at the Politics and Prose bookstore in Washington, D.C., prior to the Supreme Court’s ruling that individual states could not prohibit Trump from appearing on the ballot by using the 14th Amendment.
“The court is not going to save us,” Raskin said. “And so that means the only thing that really works is people in motion amending the Constitution.” The congressman also claimed that the protections included in the Constitution can “slip away from you very quickly.”
“And the greatest example going on right now before our very eyes is Section 3 of the Fourteenth 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. “And so 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.”
Raskin then suggested that there would be “civil war conditions” and that Congress would “need bodyguards for everybody.” The Democrat lawmaker claimed that civil war conditions and bodyguards would be necessary because the Supreme Court justices “simply do not want to do their job and interpret what the great Fourteenth Amendment means.”

All Raskin needs to do before Jan 20 is get Trump charged AND CONVICTED of fomenting an insurrection.
Things have been eerily quiet and calm since the election. What do the bastards have in store for us?
See 20th Amendment.
LOL
Democrats already used the Democracy argument when they started the 1st Civil War and formed their Confederacy of Democrat Controlled States
As soon as I read the headline I knew it was that moron Shemp Raskin.
What a jerk.
The CommucRats are still mad because Lincoln set their slaves free in 1865 and Trump will set them free again in 2025.
How could someone possibly be that full of hate?....wow
Democrats lost the last time we had a civil war. I doubt they’d do any better this time
Please do.
There’s lots of rope and no shortage of lamp posts, Raskin.
Please give us a reason to let loose our collective pent up rage against you and your ilk.
“Legal” insurrection???
And that’s how democrats defend it when THEY do it.
We won’t start it, but we will finish it.
President Lincoln had already passed away before Georgia voted to adopt the 13th amendment in 1865 and end slavery in the United States.
The United States had continued to cling to slavery after slaves in the Confederacy had been freed.
You do have to wonder as we KNOW they're not taking this lying down.
They must be up to something.
Have you read Democratic Underground recently???
The place is infested with people who talk just like that.
The party is broke, and ANTIFA mobs, like Kamala campaign rally attendees, cost money.
