At least he's got enough sense to jump ship before it sinks.."

So,, I see your damaged brain hasn't caught up with the news.

There is no 'sinking ship" for Trump. Only reelection.

No collusion with Russia for Trump.

Gobs of collusion with Russia for Hillary and obama. And gobs of evidence to prove it.

For instance.. obama knew Russia was meddling in our election, but he did nothing about Russia.
Instead...obama and his crooks deliberately placed 'spies' in the Trump campaign to frame him for crimes he is innocent of. obama had no problem framing an innocent person to cover up his crimes.

Think,, if you're able,, about how all that is going to play out for voters. It's not going to be pretty.

That 'sinking ship' you speak of is happening alright, but it is your side that is sinking, fast.

If you were smart... you'd have sense enough to jump from that sinking ship. But you aren't smart, you're only brainwashed useless.

You're not even smart enough to see whose ship is really the ship that's sinking.

Buck up... It's only going to get worse for you and yours.

At least he's got enough sense to jump ship before it sinks..

The Iowa Legislature's longest-serving Republican announced Tuesday that because of President Donald Trump, he will be joining the Democratic Party, calling Trump "a poor example for the nation and particularly for our children."

State Rep. Andy McKean, who has served in both Iowa's Senate and House chambers, identified with the Republican Party for 35 years before Tuesday's announcement and is the longest-serving Republican in the state's Legislature today, according to the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee.

"With the 2020 president election looming on the horizon, I feel as a Republican that I need to be able to support the standard bearer of our party. Unfortunately, that is not something I am able to do," McKean said at a news conference.

"He sets, in my opinion, a poor example for the nation and particularly for our children by personally insulting -- often in a crude and juvenile fashion -- those who disagree with him, being a bully at a time when we we are attempting to discourage bullying, his frequent disregard for the truth and his willingness to ridicule or marginalize people for their appearance, ethnicity or disability," McKean said.

"I believe that it is just a matter of time before our party pays a heavy price for President Trump's reckless spending and shortsighted financial policies, his erratic, destabilizing foreign policy and his disregard for environmental concerns," McKean added.

"If this is the new normal, I want no part of it."
