Republican congresswoman Nancy Mace gets into profanity-laced shouting match in store

U.S. Congresswoman Nancy Mace is drawing both support and criticism following a heated exchange at a makeup store over the weekend, which she recorded and shared online. The South Carolina representative posted a video capturing part of the incident, in which she claims she was harassed by a man who approached her with questions about her town hall meetings. The encounter, which has since gone viral, begins with the unidentified man asking Mace if she planned to hold any more town halls this year, referencing a previous one she held in 2023. Though his tone was laced with what appeared to be sarcasm, the interaction quickly escalated when Mace accused the man of harassment, repeatedly telling him he could have attended multiple sessions in the past. The exchange took an abrupt turn when Mace brought up her voting record, stating, I voted for gay marriage twice, seemingly assuming the mans sexual orientation. The man replied by questioning whether she believed that was the only issue that mattered to him, to which Mace responded, Everything about you has to do with gay marriage. Tensions rose as Mace told the man to get out of my face, although the video shows that he maintained a respectful distance. As he began to walk away, Mace shouted f*** you at him, prompting a retort in which he called her a nasty b****. In a post accompanying the video on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Mace described the man as an unhinged lunatic, mocking his attire including short shorts, and saying he confronted her inappropriately. She insisted she would not back down from such confrontations, writing, Im going to hold the line 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. The incident has sparked widespread debate online, with reactions sharply divided. Supporters, particularly from conservative circles, praised Mace for standing her ground. Critics, however, accused the Republican lawmaker of overreacting and escalating what could have remained a civil interaction. Many questioned her decision to make assumptions about the mans identity and criticized the language she used during the confrontation. Mace, a vocal critic of President Joe Biden who previously advocated for his removal via the 25th Amendment, has frequently made headlines for her outspoken political stance. This latest incident adds to a growing list of confrontations that have fueled both her support base and her detractors. As the video continues to circulate, it remains a flashpoint in ongoing discussions about public discourse, accountability, and the boundaries between political figures and constituents. Watch the video below..  Some unhinged lunatic, a man, wearing daisy dukes, at a makeup store, got in my face today.
