Vote him out! NJ

In other words, his party kicked him out. Today’s Democratic Party tolerates no dissenters.

Sad.

Ha!! Haha!!! Greed is stronger than doing the right thing!!!! Good riddance!!! You just won the last seat on the Titanic!!!! The question is how many women and children will you push your way past to get into the last lifeboat... typical behavior of a republican!!!!!

Good idea

Huge traitor

Keep him

Smart guy. Dems have gone off the rails. AMERICANS don’t identify with the ultra left.

Right to Republicans? Not going to try being independent at least? Sounds fishy

Bought. Sold. Used. Done.

Send him back home in next election, if not retiring.

They can have him. good riddance.

Tekashi Van Drew 🤡

See this is the funny part. The public and left openly destroy anyone with a conservative viewpoint. Then. conservatives stay very quiet and don’t participate in the banter. Then. Right side votes take the cake.

He was always a repub. just grand standing now

The truth is impeachment is a joke to Democratic Party politicians. Leave now before too late. Otherwise you will sink with real traitors, like Biden’s.

Just reading 'a conservative-leaning Democrat' reminds me of JFK. If so then they are losing that wing of their party and IMHO will end up like the Dixiecrats.

Seems like ordinary street trash, see ya

That is not a thing!!! There is no such thing as a conservative Democrat. They are at odds with their own ideals. It’s money. N

I read somewhere once, that if you're not a liberal by age 25 you have no heart, and if you're not a conservative by age 35, you have no brain.

JeffVanDrewTRAITOR

Leaving the dark side huh

Don’t let the doorknob hit ya.

Bravo Jeff Van Drew so will my husband and I!!! Life long Democrats, voted for Obama twice and now we are so disgusted that we must switch. Things I have been learning about Obama is shocking!!! We are sure he knew about this whole debacle!!!

If a politician switches parties after they have been elected, then they have betrayed the constituents that elected them. It should force another election to see if they can retain the seat and still represent the majority of their district.

Good! We don’t want him!

I don’t get lawmakers changing their parties. Constituents voted for 1 party then their lawmakers want to change parties? Just vote the way your people want you to vote. Even if it is going against the masses.

Good riddance

Conservative-leaning? I think you mean that he took advantage voters and fraudulently ran as a Democrat.

Voting him out is a possibility.

Maybe a BIG payoff

Probably been one all along and just could not bring himself to jump...no one abandons their adult lifetime philosophies over one disagreement and jumps ship.

dirtyjerz deadtome

First domino to fall...

So now it’s one’s job over their country/constituents?

What did the President promise him?

We’ll take you GOP!!!!!

🤢🤮 Coward

Jesus Christ, not only Democrats did not manage to convince any Republican but they are losing Democrats. They shot both of their feet.

Thank you NPR for correctly id'ing him as a conservative and not a 'moderate.'

bcrrodriguez This whole this is bs. He can still vote against Impeachment and stay a Dem. what does trump have on him?

Career suicide is none of my concern.

What an excellent example of how many people running for office aren't doing so for the good of others, but to grab power for themselves.

To the chagrin & consternation of half-witted left kowtowing imbeciles whose only source of joy is schadenfreude What suckers! They claim to be members of a liberal Dems party but are fascists heart. Socialism has just been resoundingly repudiated in UK

Is he going to switch his 2020 presidential endorsement, too? He was a supporter of Cory Booker. Booker to Trump is one helluva switch . . . makes me wonder . . .

A little slow there NPR. This was part of the Friday news dump!

GoodRiddance

Buh bye.

Jersey vote this jerk out!!!

What a time to do it

He got bought out😕

Good riddance - Here’s your new hat 👇

What’s the price tag?

NPR Choice page$. I wonder who made the collapse of Latin America debts? the crisis made Latin America being poor for decades? who? 1. They should be giving locals some of the jobs. 2. Shame on SriLankan officials who got into that agreement. Unacceptable. China’s plan of global dominance through debt is real. The USA should be VERY attentive about this & we need to get out of the hands of Chinese banks.
