Constituents are protected by the first amendment. They can swear at their reps if they want to. It might be rude and unnecessary, but it’s allowed.
The reps are holding a position of public office so they should be held to a higher standard. Cussing back at his constituents was a breach of decorum and conduct unbecoming of his station. Storming out makes him unfit for office.
If he can’t handle people’s criticism and ire in a mature way, then he doesn’t deserve to represent them.
