You can now add the word “unoriginal” to your lexicon of Nancy Mace descriptors. She apparently lives for the spotlight, not that this is an original observation. One does wonder if occasionally a thought or two about her constituents’ wellbeing, and not just how many clicks and cameras are going on at any given moment, ever crosses her mind. This is Mace’s latest masterpiece.
Um, is that her ex-fiancé? Because that’s not at all psychotic behavior. 😐 pic.twitter.com/WN0E8K1GeN

Here’s the gist of what’s going on with the ex-fiance. Just as classy as you would expect from this person who is running for the governor of South Carolina, we are told.
CHARLESTON COUNTY, S.C. (WCIV) — The public dispute between U.S. Rep. Nancy Mace and her ex-fiancé, Patrick Bryant, faced several new legal twists Monday afternoon.
Mace, in the Charleston County Court of Common Pleas, filed an Affidavit of Non-Service, where she alleges Bryant dodged service in a civil dispute regarding an alleged violation of their real estate agreement.
Bryant then turned around and filed a temporary restraining order against Mace, with the hopes of “shutting her up, which I know the whole world appreciates,” he wrote in a social media post.
You’ve got to give the man credit there. He does apprehend the basics of how Mace is perceived. Here’s a link to the root of this story, if you care. The histrionics of Nancy Mace don’t interest me in detail. My interest is that this is really going on in Congress in the year 2025, this kind of adolescent soap opera. It’s like chronicling a train wreck minutes before it happens.

Mace claims that on five separate occasions over two weeks, process servers were unable to reach Bryant, who was either unavailable or refused to answer the door despite appearing to be present at the location.
Meanwhile, in Bryant’s filing for a restraining order, his lawyers claim Mace’s continued publication of various allegations she makes against him results in “irreparable harm.”
“For two years she has used her platforms to defame me while producing nothing to support her allegations, while I have tried to allow the legal process to run its course,” Bryant said. “The restraining order also requests the judge to stop her from harassing my attorneys, which she has been doing through profanity-filled threats and public smears.”
I honestly think we’re watching a person have a public nervous breakdown. This is not remotely normal. But what can you expect when the sitting president is the kind of clown he is? Of course the rest of his party is a circus. What else would it be? I hope Mace crashes and burns soon so she can get help and begin to find some real recovery. This is not remotely normal. Not even for show business, let alone politics, who in this day and age is show biz’s bastard cousin, due to the influence of Trump.
I can’t help but wonder if anyone has taken Mace aside and pointed out how she cannot win using Drumpfian tactics? It’s the old double standard in play. To quote Kelly Bundy (from the episode “A Babe in Toyland”), “If I was a prince, I’d be a perfectionist but because I’m a princess, I’m a bitch.” Drumpf–and most MAGAt men–can get away with all sorts of crazy antics and talk with little to no pushback from anyone. Mace, on the other hand, well, not even Drumpf’s die-hard supporters are going to let her act like anything other than a “lady.”
Sure, she’s getting press with her “crazy” antics but, again, women generally can’t get away with it the way men, especially Drumpf, can.
