Rep. Raskin: Trump’s devolved GOP into ‘authoritarian cult’

Rep. Jamie Raskin joins MSNBC’s Ali Velshi to discuss the importance of accountability for the January 6th attack to prevent the failed coup plotters from trying again and the repudiation of election lies still pushed by Trump and his allies that some Republican voters “accept as gospel whatever the cult leaders tell them to believe in.”

When Kari Lake said, "...but we have The Evidence!", the people in the room broke into applause. But no one asked the (important) question: "BUT WHERE IS THE EVIDENCE?" And that's when you might think about Rudy's disbarment, and why it happened.

I would vote for Mr. Rankings in a heartbeat if I could. Please be well soon. We need you and others like you.

[@jennifertreller3729]

Kari Lake wants to be VP. She will do anything to get on the ticket.

[@Scanner9631]

Too late. Melania doesn't want her around. Trump needs his Trophy Wife more than he needs Kari Lake.

[@blindfreddy]

It's all about the money with Trump. It's the easiest money he can make with the fooled parting with their cash like religious zealots. They are literally the goose that lays the golden egg.....repeatedly. The phrase 'a fool, and his money are easily parted' applies to this very scenario.

[@blindfreddy]

@@babuhb6670 The difference is Biden isn't telling lies and fear to get his supporters to part with their cash. 45 is conning them, and they're falling for it hook line and sinker.

I hope that Mr. Raskin knows how much he is appreciated - he should be a role model for the majority of Congress - even while dealing with a major medical issue, he puts the people first and is not shy about saying what he thinks of the cesspool that DC has become. Bless you, Mr. Raskin - our thoughts and prayers are with you.🤗🙏💖

We still don't know how it is turning out in the U.S.. This may only be the trial balloon. The NEXT Trump could still succeed if the Republican base doesn't get pulled away from being susceptible to cultism.

[@douglasarcher9544]

Corrupt Intent: At what point does a person's fantasy, no matter how much in conflict with reality, no matter how many subject matter experts forcibly tell him otherwise, no matter the legal processes inform him otherwise, no matter how many of his own employees in charge of such issues tell him, constitute a defense? Looks more like a desperate client remembering a legal theory and playing it to the hilt. Just like a person lying about an injury or faking being insane in order to defraud the legal system. While it makes it easier for the case if there is testimony or other evidence that Trump himself was aware he lost, it seems to me that alone should not block the case from being indicted.

Happy that MSNBC took time off from bashing Bernie Sanders to interview this great man. Thank you Senator Raskin, I'm deeply grateful.

[@larindanomikos]

Bashing Sanders? Is this 2015?

[@gnirolnamlerf593]

Huh? Irrelevant Bernie who? When was the last time they bashed Bernie? Why bash him? He basically hasn't been relevant for years. Proof? He got off of the Budget Committee, the committee that sets the priorities for the government, as soon as he could because he couldn't even get his fellow Dems to agree on his set of priorities. By the way, if Bernie had accomplished anything significant besides his impassioned rhetoric in the last 40 years, nobody would be bashing him. Many Americans, as he will attest to, like individual pieces of Bernie's program. What they don't like is Bernie and more importantly the whole package of programs taken together, which would fundamentally change the relationship between citizens and government. Bernie says it would be for the better. If a majority of Americans believed him, he'd be serving in his second term as president. And no, don't blame the Clinton Machine. It was defeated by both Obama and Trump. It was not defeated by Sanders. Bernie would do well to ask himself why. I'll start him off. Get rid of the socialist moniker, which sadly, no one in he USA seems to understand in the way Europeans do, and stick with Democratic. Should have done that 20 years ago. I don't have big problems with his proposals, just with the way he presents them, but that is enough to make it difficult for him to ever win the presidency.

It’s too late; the GOP cannot be saved.

[@broadsidedarth7801]

Yep. I'm ashamed to admit I was fooled during Trump's first run. I thought it was an all act and that once in office he would behave like an upstanding citizen. I couldn't have been farther off target there. The final straw was the day months before the last election that he said "the only way we can lose is if they cheat." That was the most blatant setup to a coup I had ever seen. Proudly independent now. These MAGAts need to go

[@NiteMoves2010]

The people need to push back on the lies. Confront with a low non threatening voice and simply question a position with a short query. Example that never seems to get a direct response is: "What did 45 actually do that has benefited your life?" If the person is not a multi-millionaire...and I mean 3 digit millionaire, the actual answer is "NOTHING!" (unless the person feels being able to spew hatred is considered a benefit!)
