President Trump on Sunday praised Rep. Jeff Van Drew, D-N.J., amid speculation that the anti-impeachment Democrat plans to switch to the Republican Party as the House readies for a full vote on impeaching the president.

Van Drew -- who has spent months criticizing fellow Democrats for their push to impeach Trump -- met with Trump on Friday to discuss going across party lines. He is one of only two Democrats who voted against opening an impeachment inquiry into Trump and has remained a fervent voice in opposition to impeaching the president.

Was a thread on it Friday or Saturday, I'm sure the Democrats won't miss him, if he was sincere other than his own political survival he'd run as an independent as Amash did

They were talking about it today on MTP and This Week.

He's in a heavily Republican enclave in NJ and he's not doing well against a Republican challenger, so this is a last ditch, desperation move to save his own political skin.

He'll fit right in as a Republican.

He'll probably see his poll numbers rise when the repuke voters see what a craven political whore he can be.

His staff is quitting in a group. So he is turning to the dark side.

As far as I can tell he's met with Trump, announced his intention, several aides have quit. So it's a done deal.

Idiot. It's been all over the news for days. I realize it's hard for you to get real news with your head so far up your rectum.

Several of his staff resigned.

There will be quite a few radical, Democrat Socialists in Congress who will wish that they had left their party, in 2020.

...the destruction of the Democrat Party.

His defeat in a Democratic primary with a "no" vote. Or a defeat in the general with a "yes" vote.

SPOT ON: He said the "Founding Fathers had vigorous debates of whether they would even allow impeachment in the Constitution," and that he favors allowing voters to decide the matter in next year's election.

"You don't disenfranchise voters, millions upon millions of voters. Voters choose their leaders in America," Van Drew had said.

Indeed, the voters, not a few radical, Democrat, Socialist fanatics in the House select our presidents.

The voters will not be kind to them in 2020.

What an idiotic post, given all the defections, resignations and decisions not to seek reelection by Repugnants who've decided that Repugnanticism has just gotten too repugnant for them.

Idiot.
