    • Abstract:
      Less than a month into Trump's presidency, Raskin was delivering addresses like "The Future of American Democracy in the Age of Trump" before a packed main hall at Cedar Lane Unitarian Universalist Church in Bethesda, Maryland. Barely a month after taking office, Raskin met with impeachment activists and accepted a petition with more than 860,000 signatures calling on the House of Representatives to initiate an impeachment investigation into Trump's violations of the Constitution's foreign and domestic emoluments clauses. As a congressman who takes the time to call 10 to 15 constituents every weekend, Raskin recognizes that "the Ukraine episode has caught the public imagination precisely because it's vivid, it's contemporaneous, and it's outrageous and unprecedented.".
