It Begins: New Jersey House Democrat Jeff Van Drew Defects to Republicans
by Dean Garrison, DC Clothesline:
Jeff Van Drew has made his feelings known about the sham impeachment being run by his own party in recent weeks.
It is now being reported that he will be officially switch parties starting next week, but that would not come as a major shock if he follows through.
He may be the first in a lineup of many new Republicans.
Conservative Treehouse has this:
Jeff Van Drew is a democrat congressman from New Jersey CD-02. According to multiple media reports he is likely to switch to the republican party next week due to the fraudulent impeachment effort. Van Drew was one of two democrats who did not support the vote for the impeachment inquiry.
According to Politico Democrat leadership are in a panic and urgently trying to get ahold of Van Drew. The optics of a democrat changing parties at the same time they are trying to sell the validity of an impeachment narrative are terrible.
As of Saturday afternoon, it was still unclear if Van Drew would make the announcement before the House votes on impeachment, which is expected Wednesday.
“It was supposed to be bipartisan, it was supposed to be incontrovertible. It was supposed to be something that was always on the rarest of circumstances,” Van Drew told reporters about impeachment earlier this week. “Well it’s not bipartisan.”
