people have thrown around which is one less democrat that is defecting if he switches parties, but it is a strong signal and definitely for the republicans they are feeling emboldened by this, and proves the point that the entire process is a sham. democrats are concerned more so about the other defectors rather than someone switching parties and it is a huge deal, and there are people who said they have met with them about doing so this week. >> and the timing, and the report is that he is going to do it after the vote on wednesday, and it is almost as if he wants to make burn even brighter, because were he to change parties before, then he would be another republicans voting against impeachment, but he is making a big statement so afterwards, hey, bipartisan support for not impeaching this president. >> it is definitely, i think that what congressman van drew is doing is a personal decision.
