In a recent social media revelation, Congresswoman Nancy Mace (R-SC) recounted an encounter in a makeup store that she framed as politically charged.
Describing the incident, Mace referred to the man involved as “some unhinged lunatic” who was dressed in daisy dukes and claimed that he confronted her aggressively. “Dems are nuts. So I went off — and I won’t be backing down,” she declared on X, asserting her commitment to stand firm against such confrontations. “I hold the line 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Try me.”
Accompanying her post was a video that has since gone viral, capturing the escalating verbal exchange between Mace and the unidentified man, who persistently inquired about her schedule for upcoming town halls.
During this heated interaction, the man repeatedly pressed Mace on whether she intended to conduct further town hall events this year. Mace retorted that she had already held over a dozen in the past and accused him of harassment, leading to a progressively intense back-and-forth, where both parties raised their voices and exchanged expletives.
