... has drummed in new members

"Schulz highlighted policies that the SPD had pushed through, notably reducing the scope for short-term work contracts and increasing apprentice loans and minimum wages for apprentices - as demanded by the party's leftist youth wing, which has drummed in new members in the hope that they will vote against the deal." (Reuters.)

Is "drum in" a phrasal verb" meaning 'to get people to enlist' (in the SPD party)?

tkacka15 Is "drum in" a phrasal verb" meaning 'to get people to enlist' (in the SPD party)? Yes. It's a sort of made-up phrasal verb, however, and not one you're likely to see used much.
