Wow
So you Andy McKean, prefer lying then telling the truth. God riddens and shame on you.
Finally. A man with a moral compass. It’s like finding an endangered species.
Welcome aboard!
You’ll be missed, what was your name again
Wow I’m proud of a republican. Didn’t think that was possible for me
Useless dumbfck...
Draining the swamp.
And you don’t think the left fell off the edge of the earth.. vote farming to stay in power
This guy is toast in the next election. Republicans have drifted too far to the right? And the Democrats? What a fool.
AndyMcKean Democrats
He is the only one who will say it. Others say they want to spend more time with family or people who are not morons! LOL.
Yet he wants to join the left. .Green Deal,Free insurance, free education, free money,free ,free,free..the left is better!!
Do us all a favor and just leave dc
it veered right into russia. 😠
Yeah... that's how feel about the Democratic party...gone hogwild and ridiculous...I will be registering as a Republican this time.
Kudos for mentioning AsymmetricPolarization! Most outlets hide that fact and tried to make it all about Trump!
Shouldn't he concern himself with voting for what is in the best interest of the state, not his party? Asking for a friend.
Trump has the greatest behavior and leadership of all Presidents in the history of the United States. Goodbye Andy McKean. Maybe you can find someone who acts Presidential without personality who is politicall correct and all that crap but who produces nothing like the Democrats.
This is what happens when RINO’s can’t walk all over the POTUS.
No one leaves a party over a single person. Let’s be real, you don’t switch unless you embrace the ideologies of the new. I’m concerned that he doesn’t really know what he stands for.😳 No doubt that will hurt him come election time.
Time to retire. Does he support felons voting from prison?
🖕🖕
Are you kidding me?
And the Dems veered to the left what a dumb reason. He was probably never a real Republican at heart, good riddance another win for Trumpkeep trying though
SusanBrooksIN Take notice. A little courage goes a long way - you don't have to stand by silently and let the madness continue.
the party has not changed. Rep Andy McKean has always been a D-rated legislator. The lowest rated Repbulican in Iowa legislature. ACUFoundation
so people can run as repubs to get elected then change?thats bullshit
He may ha e left the GOP and put an I (Independent) after his name because of Trump but McKean didn’t become a Dem because of Trump. He must need financial backing from a new party. It was cowardly of him to switch this way.
Yeah, those Dems sure haven’t veered sharply to the left. So glad he now stands for common sense like abortion, socialism, reparations, and letting terrorists vote.
He thinks? Is he that slow?
So Republicans finally got fed up and kicked his sorry butt to the curb. No loss.
So he switching to a party of no tolerance, one that promotes attacking GOP politicians and conservative in public settings, a party that tolerates and defends anti Semitics & socialists and a party that is turning into a leftist & socialist one. A real dumb ass.
What a coward! Instead of standing up and trying to fix it, he is taking the path of least resistance. Typical professional politician. Maybe he should reign in protest? Whoa, wait, that would end his meal ticket he has been accustomed to. Coward
Good riddance I’m not a republican but voted(and will again in 2020) for President Trump! We don’t need you or won’t miss ya...

Going from a party that is veering too far right to a party veering too far left. Why not just be independent? Why the need to associate with a party if neither adhere to your values?
they haven't veered right. they've veered off a cliff
That is so concerning he decides to make a hard left? Yeah, bull. RINO
GTFO
RepublicansForImpeachment Well it sure took IA Rep Andy McKean long enough! Forgive me if I give him only a SpeakerPelosi clap! ImpeachTrumpNow
How do you switch parties though? You just leave all of what you believe in, behind? Are you for the values of the left, or did you not care from the start?
I left GOP in 2012.
Don’t jet the door hit ya Andy McKean
IAmSophiaNelson 👍👍
Yup, and the left has gone full boat commie!
Bye
Another RINO gone. Bye, I wish more like you would do the same thing. The GOP is now a party fighting for the working class and not a globalist agenda. You will not be missed.
To the far right - to obey immigration laws & not having the govt run all of healthcare & keep more of our own earned money - horrors the far right. Go away lefties!
Yeah all the way right to Russia
Does this mean that he has finally found a conscious.?
So another RINO comes out of the closet! realDonaldTrump has been great at exposing these posers!
Bye bye. Don’t let the door hit you in the ass on your way out!
You think?!
Thank you, can you convince some of your R friends to join you? Why won’t the R work on making 2020 election Russia free? Who wouldn’t want a FAIR election.
As a once Republican I couldn't agree more
HAHAHA Them Dems and Andy deserve each other!
no thank you, we have enough right wingers without *actual republicans*
Doesn't like Trump's behavior, so he joins a party hellbent on socialism and legally murdering unwanted people.
“While Republicans maintain a trifecta of control, McKean's move could make it easier for Democrats to retake control of the House in 2020” What? The Dems rule the House of Reps now. Already. The trifecta ended in 2018.
Toward authoritarianism not conservatism
'I think the party has veered very sharply to the right” *AS IN FASCIST PARTY RIGHT*
Both parties have went to the extreme ends of the left or right leaving most of us behind in the center. Most people do not agree with these extreme positions. We need a new party!
Bub BYE!
Look at the republicans who are pissed with this man.😂 The truth hurts. Don't get mad at others because they refuse to drink the orange kool-aid. 45 is a cancer to society and America. The only people who support him are scumbags like him
Get his comment on behavior yet he instead in joining a party that is Far Left, heading us toward a Socialist country that threatens our open market, free enterprise system. A party that accepts 3rd term abortions. They talks about removing some of our Constitutional Rights.
He feels the party has moved to the right, but joins a party that openly calls for socialism and communism......something doesnt make sense
cnn FoxNews iowahousedems POTUS FYI-McKean was originally a NY Dem, but he wanted to be in Iowa politics.... so he switched to the Republican Party, and now he's returning 'home'.Not the type of politician we need. The dems think this will save them now. justleave retire
Grand Canyon rift on the hill can’t find a bridge of any kind,,,clean house in 2020
Republican Party is moving farther right and the Democratic Party is moving farther left. But, we the people keep electing the same figures that are leading the parties in those directions.
cnn FoxNews iowahousedems Rep. Mckean you did the Republican Party a favor and a disservice to the people whom voted for you. You can't support POTUS but you can support the calamity of the Dem Party. justleave enoughisenough retire
He prefers the party of full term abortions. Iowa has been heading this way for years.
termlimits no matter what party they belong to. Lol “party” seems an appropriate word for what they do these days.
And the Democratic Party is sooooo centrist. 🙄
Sharply is an understatement
😀😀
Bye swampy! ✌️
“Dem party has moved sharply to the left” is more accurate.
Term limits needed.
Ya think?
I think if you switch parties you should have to resign your seat.
Where u going to go? Stay put and help MAGA
It’s not so much to the right as much as it’s gone bats—- crazy with tRump.
The other party don't need any bad apples, so he need to stay in his lane!
Finally an honest politician...
Not far enough.
TRUMP'S PARTY INSTEAD , THE INFESTATION HAS SPREAD OUT SO QUICKLY THAT THE GOP IS ' A TOTAL LOST ! WELCOME TO EITHER INDEPENDENT WITH VISION OR DEMOCRAT FOR CONVICTION !
The “Longest Serving” part should concern all the rest of us. Term limits people. Maybe the real problem is career politicians.
shut up
Yes it should.. the reason being that it's been veering left so long.. Obama..?!! Now the possibility of draining that swamp.. along with the corruption.. i.e. The Illinois state of fraud.. and crime..?!! Doesn't anyone see the prevalent outpouring of filth coming from this..?!!
I YTHINLMALLAOFYOURN UNSTED TSATEA OF MAEIORICANEIANOBNIUDHDIST WEILLL EBER BE THE SMAE ACUSTEHY USE DTH STSNIAST INTHE 70s TO SERVE Thier purpose the same as of communism realDonaldTrump IvankaTrump FBI ChinaDaily i figured it out laa beofre you guys did
AnneMorrowCoop1 What gave you that clue? reagan? I honestly am just tired of their shovel. It is like crap is the only thing. Coming out of their mouth.
Shouldn't the GOP be veering to the right by definition? It sure would make more sense than if the GOP were veering to the Left.
AKA the check from the DNC cleared.
The Republican Party is now the party of Benedict Arnold, Goebbels, Putin & The Joker- Traitors, liars, murdering dictators & deranged criminals. They must be expelled from public office to save America. GOPBetrayedUSA
The right of what lol. Securing our border ? New trade deals ? Criminal reform “ the first step act “. ? He is nuts.
Whatever it takes to keep that career going. I heard the redrawn lines aren’t looking good if you’re an R
I'd wish he stay and fight for the soul of his party. There are real conservatives out their & the country & GOP needs their voice.
The left drifted away from union democrats for radical, foreign, socialism.
