Spurned by Trump, Rep. Mace stands outside Trump Tower to pledge fidelity to the former president

Donald Trump endorsed Katie Arrington, who is challenging the first-term South Carolina congresswoman in the Republican primary and has echoed the former president’s false claims about the 2020 election

Spurned by Donald Trump, Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) traveled to New York on Thursday and stood on the sidewalk across from Trump Tower to pledge her fidelity to the former president — and warn against backing her primary rival.

On Wednesday, Trump endorsed Katie Arrington, who is challenging Mace in the Charleston-based 1st Congressional District. Standing in Manhattan, Mace recorded a video describing herself as one of Trump’s “earliest supporters” in 2015, someone who traveled to seven states to campaign for him and was a strong proponent of Trump administration policies.

She also argued that nominating Arrington in the June 14 primary could cost the GOP the seat.

“If you want to lose this seat once again in the midterm election cycle to Democrats, then my opponent is more than qualified to do just that,” said Mace, who emphasized that she won the seat back for Republicans.

All the endorsements in the world won't make up for a basic lack of critical skills. A counter job at Waffle House awaits.
