During her five-minute speech on the House floor on Tuesday, Democratic Rep. Marcia Fudge read a letter from one of her constituents in Ohio, where the writer disparaged supporters of President Trump.

"'It is glaringly apparent that many who support the president’s administration are either racists, steeped in religious beliefs, ignorant, or as my mother used to say, just plain dumb,'" Fudge read. "'I believe the crooked ascension of Trump to the Oval Office is a gauge that measures the declining patriotic and moral values of the many citizens of America.'"

"'My growing concern is that the Congress and Senate of the United States have more of a personal interest for themselves rather than a patriotic duty to the people they represent,'" she continued. "'The Republicans appear to have become a Trump cult, and the Democrats refuse to move against this man in a collected, decisive way.'"

After Fudge finished her speech, Rep. Marc Veasey, a Democrat, told the chamber they are not allowed to "engage in personalities towards the president, including by repeating remarks made elsewhere that would be improper if spoken in the member’s own words."

"This kind of language serves only to divide not unite — her constituents deserve more. But this goes to show that Democrats care more about playing identity politics than they do about winning back Blue Dog Democrats who overwhelmingly supported the president," Ohio Republican Party Chairwoman Jane Timken said in response, according to Cleveland.com.

Fudge has called for Trump's impeachment since 2017 because he is "a clear and present danger to our democracy."
