During Tuesday’s session, Fudge reemphasized her position against the president by reading a letter from a constituent that blasted Trump and accused his supporters of being stupid and racist.
In a video shared by C-SPAN, Fudge announced that the letter was sent to her from the Rev. Ronald S. Williams, senior pastor and chief executive of Mount Zion Fellowship in Highland Hills, Ohio.
“ ‘A mobster? A con man? A gangster in the White House? I think so,’ ” Fudge read. The letter then went through a rundown of Trump’s behavior before turning attention to his followers.
“ ‘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.’ ”
Fudge continued reading Williams’s letter, which compared the GOP to a “cult.”
“ ‘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 read. “ ‘The Republicans appear to have become a Trump cult, and the Democrats refuse to move against this man in a collected, decisive way.’ ”
Fudge finished her letter and left the microphone. But other members, including a Democrat, did not take her broadside well.
