Despite her name, Democratic Rep. Marcia Fudge is anything but sweet. It’s also far to say that she’s not terribly bright, because she evidently thought this is a good way to take a stand against Donald Trump:

Rep. Marcia Fudge (D-OH) on the House floor: “many who support [Trump] are either racist, steeped in religious beliefs, ignorant, or as my mother used to say, just plain dumb. … [Trump's victory] measures the declining patriotic and moral values of the many citizens of America” pic.twitter.com/RzQNqDcNmL — Ryan Saavedra (@RealSaavedra) June 12, 2019

Unhinged bigotry is certainly an interesting strategy.

This is absolutely shameful. What a revolting way to look at the people of our great country. https://t.co/jmyXfUr0zQ — Chris Barron (@ChrisRBarron) June 12, 2019

Marcia Fudge going all scorched-earth on millions of Americans is a surefire way to win hearts and minds! It definitely worked out well for the Democrats last time around.

This makes for a great Republican campaign ad. — Mike Bone (@oldmillennial34) June 12, 2019

The "deplorables" thing worked out so well for Hillary that I hope the eventual Dem nominee keeps up this line of attack. — Doug Powers (@ThePowersThatBe) June 12, 2019

This is how you get four more years of Trump. https://t.co/8kokPcCWVH — Nick Jacob (@nicktjacob) June 12, 2019
