MAGA salivates at prospect of Nancy Mace taking down 'double-talking RINO' Lindsey Graham
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) has ambitions for higher office — and it's getting some prominent Trump fans on social media excited that they can take down Sen. Lindsey Graham in a primary.
According to NOTUS, multiple sources close to Mace say she "has been discussing two positions: South Carolina governor or a Senate race." At the moment, according to the report, Mace is "particularly looking at the governor’s seat, which Henry McMaster has held since 2017 when he replaced Nikki Haley after she was appointed to be Donald Trump’s ambassador to the United Nations."
Mace notably joined the contingent that ousted Kevin McCarthy from the speakership last year and has recently adopted a strident culture war drumbeat to restrict transgender women in Capitol restrooms — despite calling herself "pro-transgender rights" just a year earlier.
The notion she could take down Graham caused an enthusiastic stir among MAGA social media accounts Thursday.
Graham is a vocal pro-Trump loyalist, but his previous association with the late Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), and his support of neoconservative interventionist military policies have been at odds with some of Trump's more isolationist beliefs. Some far-right influencers see him as unreliable.

" Your days in the Senate are numbered, Lady Graham. Should Based Mace do it?"
The phrase "Lady Graham" appears to be a derogatory reference to unsubstantiated rumors about Graham.
