Rep. Jeff Van Drew (NJ) made waves when he decided to leave the Democratic Party and become a Republican. He joined Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo on “Sunday Morning Futures” to discuss the final straw that caused him to say goodbye to the party he once was associated with.
“We spoke on the phone the other day and you said, ‘You know, Maria, I always look for signs.’ There was a sign, something in you that said I’m not comfortable here,” Bartiromo said. “Tell me how you came to this decision to leave the majority, the Democrats, and become a Republican congressman.”
According to Van Drew, he knew the party was moving further and further to the left and was on the verge of becoming a socialist party but he’s “a proud capitalist” that “believe[s] in hard work” and giving people the opportunity to success.
