But now they’re caught between a rock and a hard place with what to do next.

The House Democrats’ impeachment push has turned into a “bizarre anti-constitutional gimmick” that is now helping President Trump’s standing with voters, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich told “Fox & Friends” on Monday.
Gingrich said he believes Democrats know Trump is going to win reelection next November and the impeachment is being driven more by politics and Democrats’ “hatred” for the president.
“If he is in the election, he is going to win. How do they get him out of the election? This is the most bizarrely anti-constitutional gimmick I think I have ever seen. There is zero basis for what they are doing. Just listen to them talk about it. There is nothing constitutional about trying to impeach a president because you don’t like him. And that’s the bottom line here,” he said.
As the process moves forward in the House toward a full vote on impeachment articles, Gingrich pointed to Rep. Jeff Van Drew, D-N.J., moving to switch parties. Van Drew has been adamantly opposed to top Democrats on the impeachment push.
