Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., says Democrats view a potential third impeachment of President Donald Trump as a possible option for Congress. Speaking on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” he argues Trump has “undoubtedly” committed impeachable acts in his second term, and that impeachment should be treated as a “critical tool” rather than something automatically ruled out.
Raskin frames impeachment as part of a broader set of political and legislative priorities. He says it is “not a taboo” for Democrats, but also “not a panacea,” indicating it would not replace other efforts if Democrats regain control of the House. One outlet emphasizes his language that impeachment is neither taboo nor fetish, while another highlights his “toolbox” description, linking the possibility to congressional control rather than presenting impeachment as an automatic outcome.
Across coverage, the central point is Raskin’s position that impeachment remains on the table if conditions in Congress change, alongside continued focus on other policy matters.
