Ex-GOP Analyst Calls Out Rep. Mace Over Shifting Stance on Gay Rights

UPDATE: Former GOP analyst Tim Miller has sharply criticized Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) for her recent contradictory statements regarding LGBTQ rights, igniting a social media firestorm that has drawn widespread attention. Just yesterday, Mace tweeted a controversial message, “Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve,” a phrase often used to undermine support for gay marriage, prompting backlash online.

Miller, host of “The Bulwark Podcast,” responded on Wednesday, stating, “This is a deeply sad woman just looking for attention.” Miller’s remarks come after Mace’s tweet received a Community Note on X, highlighting her previous votes in favor of protecting gay marriage.

In a new episode of “Bulwark Takes,” Miller showcased a montage of Mace’s past social media posts where she expressed support for LGBTQ rights. Notably, a 2021 tweet declared, “I support LGBTQ rights. Nobody should be discriminated against,” and emphasized that “religious liberty, gay rights, and transgender equality can all coexist.”

Miller pointed out the shift in Mace’s rhetoric, particularly after her personal experiences with divorce, noting, “That’s Nancy’s trajectory from ‘Equality for everybody, miss pride, love trans people,’ to ‘Go ahead and get married if you want, gays, it’s miserable.'”

He also displayed a tweet where Mace shared a South Carolina Pride flag, illustrating her previous public support for the LGBTQ community. Miller’s comments reflect a growing frustration among constituents and social media users regarding Mace’s evolving stance on crucial social issues.

The implications of this debate are significant, especially as Mace navigates her political identity within a party increasingly divided on LGBTQ rights. Voters are closely watching how these statements will affect her standing in future elections, particularly in a state like South Carolina where public opinion on such matters is shifting.

As this situation develops, observers are left to wonder what Mace’s next moves will be and how they will resonate with her supporters. Will she clarify her position, or continue to oscillate between conflicting views? The spotlight remains on Mace as the dialogue surrounding LGBTQ rights intensifies within the Republican Party.
