Nancy Mace begs for MAGA voters support in front of Trump Tower after ex-president dubbed her very disloyal
Congresswoman Nancy Mace does not have Donald Trumps endorsement, but she did have his building in the background as she begged for his voters support.
Ms Mace, the Republican representing South Carolinas 1st congressional district, posted a video of herself in front of Trump Tower on Thursday, singing the former presidents praises.
He brought American jobs back, he lowered our taxes, wages and employment were better for every hard-working American, the congresswoman, standing on a New York City sidewalk, said of Mr Trump. He made America safer.
What Ms Mace left out was that the day before, Mr Trump had enthusiastically endorsed her primary opponent, Katie Arrington, and dragged Ms Maces name through the mud.

No, I'm afraid that MAGA's ranks have swollen to the level of being an organized religion. That's the only difference, really.
The Mar-a-Lago is their Vatican.

SC Congressional candidate Katie Arrington falsely claims Trump won the 2020 election
CHARLESTON, S.C.
Hours after launching her congressional campaign, South Carolina Republican Katie Arrington falsely claimed Donald Trump won the 2020 presidential election, echoing the baseless claims of the former president who has been making the false declaration of his victory the ultimate litmus test for Republicans seeking federal office in 2022.
In a 15-minute interview with The State newspaper Tuesday morning, the Summerville Republican, who is challenging incumbent U.S. Rep. Nancy Mace in Charlestons congressional GOP primary race, did not hesitate when asked if she thought Trump won the 2020 presidential election against President Joe Biden.
Yes, I do. I think Trump won the 2020 election, Arrington said. I think theres too many voting irregularities.
Arrington then cited Bidens anemic approval ratings as an example of the mismatch she sees between his election to the White House and voter sentiment.
But is President Biden, you know, duly elected? Yeah, hes legally the President of the United States because people like Nancy Mace didnt have a backbone, and they certified the election, Arrington said.

Trump Backs Arrington Over GOP Rep. Mace in South Carolina
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday endorsed former South Carolina lawmaker Katie Arrington over first-term Rep. Nancy Mace in a GOP primary that tests his heft in the state.
In a statement, Trump called Arrington a true Republican with his Complete and Total Endorsement for South Carolinas 1st Congressional District.
Trump called Mace whom he endorsed in 2020, and who worked for his 2016 campaign an absolutely terrible candidate whose remarks and attitude have been devastating for her community, and not at all representative of the Republican Party to which she has been very disloyal.
Arrington who ousted Rep. Mark Sanford in a 2018 GOP primary, only to lose the general election launched her primary challenge to Mace Tuesday. In a launch video, Arrington called Mace a sellout who is more interested in being a mainstream media celebrity than fighting for the people she is supposed to represent.

(43,173 posts)The Humiliation of Canossa, (Italian: L'umiliazione di Canossa), sometimes called the Walk to Canossa (German: Gang nach Canossa/Kanossa)[1] or the Road to Canossa, was the ritual submission of the Holy Roman Emperor, Henry IV to Pope Gregory VII at Canossa Castle in 1077 during the Investiture controversy. It involved the Emperor journeying to Canossa, where the Pope had been staying as the guest of Margravine Matilda of Tuscany, to seek absolution and the revocation of his excommunication.
According to contemporary sources, he was forced to supplicate himself on his knees waiting for three days and three nights before the entrance gate of the castle, while a blizzard raged. Indeed, the episode has been described as "one of the most dramatic moments of the Middle Ages". It has also spurred much debate among medieval chroniclers as well as modern historians, who argue about whether the walk was a "brilliant masterstroke" or a humiliation.[2]
