If Congressman Jamie Raskin hadn’t already established himself as a freshman to watch, he definitely did when word got out about one bill that he thinks he will introduce very soon—articles of impeachment against soon-to-be President Trump.http://www.dailykos.com/story/2017/1/19 ... inst-Trump" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Last weekend, Raskin spoke at an Obamacare rally at Bowie State University. However, he drew the biggest cheers when he said that he may be voting to impeach the Donald very soon. Watch here, via The Young Turks.
Raskin says that he already has grounds for impeachment—the fact that Trump hasn’t even begun to unwind “tens or hundreds of millions of dollars” worth of foreign business interests. He has come to the same conclusion as a number of ethics experts and constitutional law experts from both parties—it would be a flagrant violation of the Emoluments Clause, which bars federal officials from taking gifts from foreign governments.
