Democrat Breaks Ranks, Van Drew Opposes Impeachment

Trenton NJ, This lawmaker is one of the few House Democrats against the impeachment inquiry. He says he’s on the ‘right side of history.’
Freshman Rep. Jeff Van Drew, D-N.J., is one of only a handful of House Democrats to oppose the impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump and he’s not shy about explaining why.
His opinion has won public praise from Trump, angered progressive groups and sparked an effort to recruit a primary challenger to take him on. “Everybody says, ‘Be on the right side of history’ — I think the right side of history is not to impeach,” Van Drew said.
