Raskin: Trump Wants ‘to Run Against Mexicans, Immigrants, and Rapists... Other than Himself’

EXCERPT:

RASKIN: “He doesn’t want a solution, he wants a scapegoat. And he think that he knows how to run against Mexicans and run against immigrants and rapists, other than himself, of course. That’s the kind of campaign he wants to run. It really is in the gutter. The shocking thing is how much he has dragged the whole Republican Party down. We’re talking about Abraham Lincoln’s party. It was an anti-slavery, pro-union, pro-freedom, pro-reason party. And it’s been turned into this authoritarian cult of personality obsessed with conspiracy theory and disinformation. And it’s playing out every day in Congress. It’s an embarrassment. Everybody is calling them the do-nothing Congress, but that’s on the good days. When they try and do something, like today, it’s impeaching a cabinet official for doing his job.”
