Democrat says he expects to oppose articles of impeachment against Trump

Freshman Rep. Jefferson Van Drew (D-N.J.) said Friday that he expects to oppose articles of impeachment against President Trump, dismissing a push from Democrats in his district to side with the party.
Van Drew represents a district that had long been held by the GOP until his election in 2018. He was one of only two Democrats to break party lines in late October and vote against a resolution establishing procedures for the public phase of the impeachment inquiry.
Van Drew said that the weeks since then — which have featured several public hearings with witnesses to Trump's dealings with Ukraine and constitutional experts — haven't changed his position that impeachment isn't warranted.
