Raskin: I’m So Much in Trump’s Head I Can See His ‘Real Blood Thirst for Power’
bretibart ^ | 22 Jun 2022 | PAM KEY

Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) said that after investigating former President Donald Trump’s actions around the 2020 presidential election, he has “entered so much in Donald Trump’s head” that he can see the former president’s next moves because of Trump’s “real blood thirst for power.”

Anchor Chris Hayes said, “It is still surprising to me how the scope and systematic nature of the various attempts, just the thing that you guys showed about the calls to the state legislators, the calls every day, the voice mails, it was not grasping at straws, you know? It wasn’t a temper tantrum. Did you understand how systematic, how broad, how, you know, targeted this entire effort was before entering into this investigation?”

Raskin said, “Well, I had an inkling of it because he did leave no stone unturned. And within the creaky, antiquated Electoral College system, there are a lot of nooks and crannies, and opportunities for a bad faith actor like Donald Trump to plant a lot of booby traps. That’s precisely what he did. I had thought about trying to identify the various decision points and junctures within the Electoral College, and sure enough, he was in all of them trying to have his way and to usurp the will of the people and substitute his own political will.”

He added, “It is sort of shocking when you step back and look at it. I guess the sad thing for me is that I’ve entered so much in Donald Trump’s head that I can see exactly where he’s going to go in the next move. I mean, he has a real blood thirst for power.”

within the creaky, antiquated Electoral College system

This is the ultimate goal. Use the whole Jan 6th debacle to try and push legislation to get rid of the Electoral College so that all Federal elections will be run from about 8 cities in the USA.

Jamie Raskin, you are about to be a back bencher, with no committee assignments. You are going to get a democracy suppository and be surrounded by so many MAGA representatives that your life is going to be a living hell.

A mind reader, he is.

The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him. Proverbs 18:17

I suppose that is the ultimate aim here - the abolition of the Electoral College. Do that and no Republican will ever win the presidency ever again. We will be ruled by New York, Chicago, LA, and other urban Dem strongholds.

But the EC has worked fine for over two hundred years. Only when the Dems lose a couple of elections do they cast aspersions against it.

Does Raskin know that he is not in Trump’s head, he’s just a little gnat flying around his head and has failed repeatedly to lay a glove on Trump.

Trump then responded, “Jamie Raskin? Never heard of her.”

Raskin's son committed suicide and his note refers to the political climate being a factor (reference to Trump).

Conclusion: Raskin blames Trump for his son's suicide. That explains why Raskin is so irrational regarding Trump.

That is just for background purpose, not a defense. Raskin is one of the biggest a$$hats in the House.
