Using the hashtag "#TrumpHeimer," a consumer advocacy group bought a full-page ad in Wednesday's print edition of Politico to criticize Democratic Rep. Josh Gottheimer of Wyckoff for accepting Wall Street contributions and supporting President Donald Trump's agenda too often.

The ad, addressed "to the new Democratic majority," says Gottheimer took $1.5 million in Wall Street money and "votes with Trump more than he votes with you." A companion video ad, aimed at web browsers in New Jersey and Washington, says Gottheimer "voted to gut the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau" and "even tried to weaken the new Democratic majority before they've even been sworn in."

The ads are the work of Allied Progress Action, a "dark money" advocacy group, meaning one that does not disclose its donors. Allied Progress previously ran similar attacks on changes to the consumer bureau made by Mick Mulvaney, the White House budget director tapped by Trump last week to be acting chief of staff.

The effort is the latest sign that progressive groups that fought to wrest control of the House from Republicans will not shy away from attacking opponents, even if they are Democrats.

"Gottheimer's the first. There may be others," said Karl Frisch, executive director of Allied Progress.

Gottheimer has already faced criticism from activist groups in his North Jersey district for playing political hardball before supporting Rep. Nancy Pelosi to be House speaker next year.

As co-chairman of the Problem Solvers Caucus, which is made up of equal numbers of Democrats and Republicans, Gottheimer initially withheld his support for Pelosi until she agreed to changes to House rules that will make it easier for ideas with bipartisan support to get votes in the new Congress. In effect, that means Republicans will have more power in the minority under Pelosi than Democrats had under Republican Speakers John Boehner or Paul Ryan during the past eight years.

Gottheimer spokesman Matt Fried said some Democrats think he votes too often with Republicans and some Republicans think he votes too often with Democrats.

“The truth is that Josh is a problem solver who works with both sides of the aisle to do what’s best for our district and he never backs down — fighting for jobs in Jersey, standing up against the tax hike bill and attempts to gut health care coverage, and punching back on predatory lenders targeting our 9/11 first responders,” Fried said.

Gottheimer won his second term last month representing a North Jersey district dominated by Bergen County that also includes parts of more conservative Warren and Sussex counties. According to the "Trump Tracker" developed by the website FiveThirtyEight.com, Gottheimer had the most conservative voting record of the New Jersey Democratic delegation in this Congress.

That included being one of just seven Democrats to vote in March 2017 for a bill to put more restrictions on new regulations issued by federal agencies, including the financial protection bureau. The bill never got a Senate vote and did not become law.
