Van Drew says “screw this” and joins the GOP. Thoughts?

To me this is a major development.

A stick in the eye of Pelosi, Schiff, Nadler, et. al.

Now, how many more have integrity and are not compromised?

Van Drew ...joins the GOP. Thoughts????

Maria Bartiromo said NP shut him down after he went on her show 3 weeks ago to explain his no vote. I guess he doesn’t like taking shit from nancy.

Van Drew is free to switch parties, but short of the NJ GOP clearing the field for him to do so, he’s going to have a problem in the primary.

At least he's switching because of sincere policy disagreement with the RATS rather than because he can't get elected as a RAT in that district anymore or because there is no one running on the GOP side so he'll win the nomination automatically. I never trust party switchers who do so for tactical reasons. Hell, I still don't like Rick Perry, and he became a Republican DECADES ago.

Still, aside from being vehemently against impeachment, is there anything else the guy has in common with the GOP? I'd be wary of welcoming him with open arms. He better start VOTING like a Republican too.

I live in his district. I called his office in Washington and reminded him this is Trump country. He’d better not vote against the President if he wants to keep his job. I also said I did not vote for him, and as long as he was a Democrat I never will.

This is very interesting.

Hmmm so maybe that NJ freeper that goes on about “conservative” democrats had a point about this one? LOL.

We have a little ways to go to get back the majority and I don’t see any world beaters currently in the GOP primary, I say welcome him and give him a pass (THIS time). This is the last thing the democrats wanted. There is talk that he has an internal poll showing him doing badly in the rat primary because of his impeachment stance.

He indeed did not vote for Pelsoi though I didn’t want to mention that before in case some idiot thought he might be worth supporting as a rat.

Collin Peterson (MN) did vote for Pelosi, every time she’s won in case any freeper considers praising him after he votes no.
