Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) needs a prescription for chill pills, to be taken as needed – because he seems to need them a lot. In his latest in a series of hysterical outpourings, Rep. Raskin is horrified at the idea that the Trump team has not yet entered into presidential transition agreements.
Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) is raising concerns about the Trump campaign’s failure to enter into presidential transition agreements with the federal government, cautioning that the delay could negatively impact the transfer of power early next year.
Raskin — the top Democrat on the House Oversight and Accountability Committee — laid out his worries in a letter to former President Trump and his running mate, Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), on Wednesday.
“Breaking the precedent set by every other presidential candidate since 2010, you have rejected these resources and refused to commit to a smooth transition,” Raskin wrote.
“Your actions depart from well-established norms of the federal government and demonstrate a spectacular disregard for the successful continuation of the essential institutions of American democratic government,” he added.
Quick, someone get this man a fainting couch!
As should come as a surprise to no one who has been reading my work for more than ten minutes, I have some questions for the esteemed (hah!) Rep. Raskin.
First: Are you now admitting that Donald Trump appears, more and more as the election grows closer, like he’s winning? Oh, I know, the only poll that counts is the one on Election Day. But if you look at what indicators we have now, it’s looking like the Trump campaign is a much happier place to be than the Harris campaign.
Second: Mr. Raskin, you’re only now worried about people disregarding norms? Aren’t you the same guy who is threatening to refuse to certify the election if Donald Trump wins? Aren’t you the one angling to eliminate the Electoral College and force ranked-choice voting on Americans nationwide?
Third and finally: Has the Harris campaign entered into these agreements? Do you know? Would you say anything if they have not?

Democrat Rep. Jamie Raskin Wants to Force Ranked-Choice Voting Nationwide. There’s a Problem.
There’s little reason to get agitated about any presidential transition as of yet, Raskin’s pearl-clutching notwithstanding. I’m sure the Trump/Vance team has their plans, and I’m sure that any necessary paperwork will be done in time; the morning of November 6th seems like a good time to take care of it. In the meantime, as the “Honorable” Mr. Raskin may have noticed, there happens to be a bit of a presidential campaign going on, and those tend to eat up a lot of time and resources.
Jamie Raskin, though, is a walking, talking example of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Come back tomorrow and he’ll be hyperventilating about something else.
This seems appropriate.

Raskin, another “small hat” lyingdog. He betrays the U.S.A.,and seeks to destroy this Constitutional Republic with his lies, and evil deceit. He is no honest friend to Israel either. Ratskin should have a family crest that says “I Am For Me”. Put him in the “Patriot Act Jail” where they abuse the J-6 people, and deny them their rights. All promoted by that scumbag G. Bush and co-communists/globalists. Give Ratskin the J-6 treatment,–no rights, no lights, no legal access to attorneys. Communism at work.
