UPDATE: Former GOP analyst Tim Miller launched a scathing critique of Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) on Wednesday, accusing her of hypocrisy regarding her views on gay marriage. This confrontation follows Mace’s controversial tweet on Tuesday, where she remarked, “Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve,” a phrase commonly used by anti-LGBTQ advocates.
Miller, host of “The Bulwark Podcast,” responded during an episode of “Bulwark Takes” by showcasing Mace’s past statements that contradicted her recent post. He highlighted a Community Note on X that emphasized Mace’s previous votes supporting gay marriage protection.
“This is a deeply sad woman just looking for attention,” Miller stated, as he dissected her evolving stance on LGBTQ rights. He presented a montage of Mace’s past tweets, including a 2021 declaration: “I support LGBTQ rights. Nobody should be discriminated against.” In another post, she claimed that “religious liberty, gay rights, and transgender equality can all coexist,” demonstrating a stark contrast to her current rhetoric.
Miller noted Mace’s shift in tone regarding marriage, suggesting it may have been influenced by her personal experiences, including two divorces. “At this point, she’s even pro-trans,” he remarked, referencing her previously supportive statements during the Biden administration.
The backlash against Mace’s tweet has sparked discussions about the authenticity of her political positions. Social media users have expressed outrage and disappointment, calling into question her commitment to LGBTQ issues. Miller’s comments highlight the growing scrutiny of politicians who shift their public stances based on political expediency rather than genuine belief.
As this story unfolds, observers are keenly watching how Mace will respond to these allegations and whether she will clarify her position on LGBTQ rights moving forward.
Stay tuned for more updates on this developing situation as the political landscape continues to evolve.
