I think the optics of Dems leaving the party are just as powerful.

I feel like he should have waited until after the vote to announce hes switching - this will make it more difficult for other Dems to vote no

The people in a lot of these districts will have to do the calculus and figure out if they could even get re-elected as a Dem regardless of their vote.

They can honestly argue they aren’t leaving the party, the party left them, as none of them campaigned on this.

Just looked up this guys’s voting history. Why was he even a democrat at this point? Not that I disagree with him at all but he was a true DINO. I don’t know if that he’s just a blue dog or the left has gone so far left that the party has left him behind.

quote:

In his run for state senate in 2007, Van Drew remarked, "I’m proud to be a Democrat because to me it always represented working people, middle class people and issues of compassion." Van Drew represented Republican-leaning Cape May County in the assembly, and accordingly took politically moderate positions.[29] During his congressional primary campaign, Van Drew had a 100% rating from the National Rifle Association (NRA).[30] In 2007 and 2008, Van Drew received $2,700 from the National Shooting Sports Foundation Inc., and in 2008, Van Drew received $1,000 from the NRA.[31] In 2010, Van Drew sponsored legislation that would allow residents to carry a handgun after going through a background check, taking a firearms training course, passing a test, and paying a $500 fee.[32] In 2013, Van Drew voted as the only Democrat against a series of 10 gun control bills following the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.[33] Van Drew also voiced support for expanded background checks and the regulation for silencers. Despite his pro-gun stance, the gun-control group Moms Demand Action designated Van Drew a "Gun Sense Candidate".[31] In 2012 as state senator, Van Drew voted against a bill to legalize same-sex marriage in New Jersey, one of two Democrats in opposition.[34] In 2013 during his reelection campaign, the non-profit New Jersey Family First sent out flyers stating that Van Drew "supports traditional marriage and letting the people vote on the definition of marriage," while his Republican opponent Susan Adelizzi Schmidt was in favor of same-sex marriage.[35] Also in 2012, Van Drew voted against raising the state minimum wage above the federal minimum wage of $7.25, the lone Democrat to dissent.[36] On his campaign website, Van Drew highlighted his support for fully funding the Children’s Health Insurance Program, and protecting net neutrality.[37] Van Drew also supported a state constitutional amendment requiring parental approval for abortions, which he later withdrew. As state senator, he also withdrew sponsorship of a bill to reinstate the death penalty in the state, which he previously favored.[37][38] Van Drew opposes offshore drilling on the Atlantic coast; in 2019 he joined Republican John Rutherford to introduce the Atlantic Coastal Economies Protection Act, which would prohibit seismic air gun testing in the Atlantic Ocean.[39] The state senator previously voted to withdraw from Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative,[37] and supported the construction of a pipeline through the Pinelands.[40] In October 2019, he announced that he would oppose the impeachment inquiry against Donald Trump.[41] On October 31, 2019, he was one of two Democrats to vote against the rules for an impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump.[42][43] The vote was partially seen as a re-election strategy.[44][citation needed] In December 2019 it was reported that he is considering switching to the Republican Party.[45][46]

One less district to flip in 2020 to get the House back! Hopefully their aren't enough cucks in that MI district to let Awash win re-election or have that seat go to a Dem.

He called Schiff a CROOKED BASTARD!!!! That's using the office of the president to abuse fatherless bastards and even those with a father who identify as bastards. Including fat bastards, sorry bastards. worthless bastards, dirty bastards and the most vulnerable of all, corksucking bastards.
