Few Democrats in the House have drawn the ire of progressives as much as Josh Gottheimer has in the past couple of weeks, but by all appearances, he's not feeling any heat from the left

Some party activists say Gottheimer is ripe for a primary challenge after he’s taken shots at the “far left” for trying to “kill an historic infrastructure bill."

The fight has energized some party activists, who say Gottheimer is ripe for a primary challenge after he’s taken shots at the “far left” for trying to “kill an historic infrastructure bill” — and even Speaker Nancy Pelosi. No primary opponents have emerged to challenge Gottheimer in 2022, partly because he’s a massive fundraiser who, sitting on $11 million in campaign cash, would dominate the airwaves in the nation‘s most expensive media market. At the same time, New Jersey Democrats understand that running a liberal in a district that had been represented by Republicans for decades could imperil a seat Gottheimer has managed to win comfortably.

While many of those progressive activists have been allied with Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy, the governor won his first primary thanks in part to the strength of the line and ran on it again for his reelection primary in June despite facing pressure to eschew it.

Rep. Josh Gottheimer's current bills in Congress 📜

He should not want his legacy to be that he became known as JoshGotNothingDone. Credit to him for winning a majority GQP District and leading the 'Problem Solvers Caucus', but has he ever identified the problems his caucus has solved?

Then it's on the DCCC to demonstrate that they won't fund his campaign if he doesn't support the plan. It's hardball time

Was this tweet written by his PR team?

How would you know the heat he feels from his appearance?
