    Van Drew is a freshman who has said he plans to vote against impeaching President Donald Trump.

    Only a small handful of Democrats are expected to oppose Trump’s impeachment in a vote expected next week. Van Drew represents a southern New Jersey congressional district that Trump carried in 2016. Van Drew has been considered one of the more vulnerable House Democrats in next November’s elections.

    Not a big deal as there is very little fundamental difference between the two parties.

    Van drew is both a liar and a short undisciplin’d politician who bamboozled his constituents so he can receive our opportunity to go to Washington. The democrats in his district should refrain sending any more monies to him and request that he pay back all the money that they gave him to his position, this is why People cannot trust politicians.
