"Love & the Constitution": Rep. Jamie Raskin on Son's Death, Trump's Coup Plot & Protecting the Vote

As more details emerge about Donald Trump's role in the deadly January 6 insurrection, we're joined by Congressmember Jamie Raskin, who serves on the House select committee investigating the Capitol attack and was the lead manager in Trump's second impeachment trial. Raskin writes about the insurrection in a new memoir titled "Unthinkable: Trauma, Truth, and the Trials of American Democracy" and is featured in the new MSNBC documentary "Love & the Constitution," which follows Raskin during Trump's years in office leading up to the January 6 insurrection and the tragic death of Raskin's son. "We knew that Trump was doing everything in his power to try to overturn the election," says Raskin. "We had prepared for everything except for a violent insurrection overrunning the House and the Senate." We're also joined by "Love & the Constitution" director Madeleine Carter, whose film premieres Sunday.
