Josh Gottheimer is taunting the ‘far left.’ He’s still unlikely to face a serious primary.

Some party activists say Gottheimer is ripe for a primary challenge after he’s taken shots at the “far left” for trying to “kill an historic infrastructure bill."

"No primary opponents have emerged to challenge Gottheimer in 2022, partly because he’s a massive fundraiser who, sitting on $11 million in campaign cash, would dominate the airwaves in the nation‘s most expensive media market. At the same time, New Jersey Democrats understand that running a liberal in a district that had been represented by Republicans for decades could imperil a seat Gottheimer has managed to win comfortably."

O.K. I have no idea. Arguing your position though wouldn't be squabbling. That is what we elect them to do.
