wearing her own “Scarlet Letter” shirt to work and embarrassing herself in hearings. But her non-stop caterwauling about Sarah McBride using the women’s room represents a new low. In a span of 36 hours, Mace tweeted 262 timesabout her proposed legislation that would bar trans women from Capitol bathrooms.
An incoming rep. from Delaware, McBride will be the first out trans person to serve in Congress. And Mace seems intent on humiliating her.
On Wednesday, House Speaker Mike Johnson banned trans people from using public restrooms in the Capitol that correspond with their gender identity. It’s a cruel and shameful edict, issued only for the purpose of ginning up anti-trans sentiment. While McBride has avoided dwelling on the issue, her future Democratic colleagues have stood up in her defense.
One imagines that’s what any decent person would do… including the old version of Nancy Mace. That’s right: it was only three years ago when Mace was anticipating the start of Pride Month, excited to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community following 2020. “The pandemic kept all of us from fully celebrating Pride here in the Lowcountry in 2020,” she posted.
“But hopefully, as we finally begin to open back up, we can all come together to celebrate the challenges our LGBTQ+ has overcome, and the bright future ahead.”Little did Mace know, that “bright future” wound up including a crazed congresswoman obsessed with a trans colleague’s bathroom use. Life happens fast!I'm sorry, the old Nancy can't come to the phone right now. https://t.co/iu4tixFv7nhttps://t.co/6U5GGr13QN pic.twitter.com/dW4RxPLGhtWTF HAPPENED https://t.co/6sRSWQUP7OThe Gen Z rep.
asked why Nancy Mace is so obsessed over where future members urinate. One of 39 House Republicans to vote for the Respect for Marriage Act in 2022, Mace professed her support for LGBTQ+ rights just months after entering Congress.“I strongly support LGBTQ rights. No one should be discriminated against,” she posted in March 2021.
