In the half glow of early evening, on a tree-lined suburban street, a crush of supporters engulfs Jamie Raskin. “Welcome to New Jersey!” someone says. “Thank you for doing what you do. I’m so honored to shake the hand of the man who impeached Donald Trump.” Raskin works the crowd: a quip here, a handshake there, selfies all around. He’s wearing a dark pinstriped suit, a burgundy-and-blue tie, and a pair of scuffed tan oxfords. His look is less polished than professorial, a holdover from his days as a constitutional-law professor at American University—before he became a Democratic congressman representing Maryland’s 8th District, and a liberal darling for his fight against Trumpism.“You always say the things we would like to say,” someone else tells him. “I’m a total fangirl. Are these people as crazy as they seem?” These people, in this case, refers to leaders of the MAGA movement in the House of Representatives. Georgia Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene, Raskin confesses, more than lives up to her reputation among Democrats. “But I have to admit,” he adds, “I have a soft spot” for Colorado Republican Lauren Boebert. Recently, during an oversight hearing, Greene asked if Texas Democrat Jasmine Crockett’s fake eyelashes were affecting her reading comprehension, an insult that set off a lengthy, heated exchange among lawmakers. After Greene’s initial jab was stricken from the record, Raskin explains, Boebert voted with Democrats against allowing Greene to continue speaking.
