"The longest-serving Republican in the Iowa Legislature announced Tuesday that he’s becoming a Democrat, saying he didn’t want to remain in a party led by President Trump.
Rep. Andy Mckean, 69, a retired attorney from eastern Iowa city of Anamosa, said he made his decision after returning to the Legislature after years away from politics and finding the Republican Party had changed. He was a registered Republican for nearly a half-century, The Washington Post reported.

During a news conference at the Iowa Statehouse in Des Moines on Tuesday, McKean said if the president’s behavior and leadership is the new normal, “I want no part of it.”"
Isuppose he wants part of the lying, cheating and ultr-hypocritical Democrat Part.
I just shows how set the swamp is even in Iowa.

    Another miserable one suffering from TDS.

    "McKean, who describes himself as a moderate, pointed to Trump’s spending decision and what he called the president’s “erratic, destabilizing foreign policy,” choices regarding the environment and “disregard for the truth.”

    Oh, he loved Hussein's foreign policy, I assume since he was silent like dog poop in the grass at the time.

    Disregard for the truth? He sure will find the "truth" in the lefty camp.

    What an idiot!
