Rep. Nancey Mace (R-SC) who was elected to the House of Representatives as a mostly moderate conservative only to turn into a cheerleader for Donald Trump, is increasingly infuriating her GOP House colleagues who are growing fed up with her antics and her habit of publically taking one position only to cast it aside when it comes time to vote.
In interviews with the Washington Post, Mace was bashed by multiple GOP lawmakers with one telling reporters, "Let’s be clear, Nancy Mace, it’s been a long time since she’s done anything productive to move forward this broader team," and another stating, "Unserious people get found out here very quickly. She’s an unserious person.”
Central to GOP distaste for the South Carolina Republican was her latest flip-flop when it came to picking a new House speaker.
As the Post's Jacqueline Alemany wrote, "Mace, who said she voted to oust [former House Speaker Kevin] McCarthy because of his failure to prioritize bills pertaining to reproductive rights, ultimately voted in support of now-Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), who has an extensive record of supporting restrictive antiabortion legislation and has championed a nationwide ban."
That is just the latest complaint about Mace who is a regular guest on cable TV news programs.

"Her now-routine opposition to Republican-backed legislation before eventually voting for it has perplexed some of her colleagues and political staff around her," Alemany wrote before adding, "Mace’s highly publicized flip-flops have given way to a reputation of an apostate more than a maverick, with no clear political identity or ideology, according to more than 30 lawmakers, staffers and operatives who work in South Carolina and on Capitol Hill."
The report notes that her colleagues have grown wise to her game.
"Any single time there’s a tight vote, she will find a way to be on the other side of what Republicans are trying to do and it gives her a chance to be on TV,” one GOP lawmaker complained.
