Nancy Mace's Top 5 Political Failures: dead last for governor, the Speaker she toppled for nothing, and one law in nine years, a post office
A catalog of the record. Across nine years in office Nancy Mace built a national brand and almost no results to match it. She finished dead last, fifth of five, in the 2026 Republican primary for governor. She helped throw out a sitting Speaker of the House and got a more MAGA Speaker, three weeks of paralysis, and a revenge primary for her trouble. She lost to Lindsey Graham the one time she ran against him, in 2014, then talked herself out of his seat in 2026 after polling at 10 percent. Of the 192 bills she has sponsored, the only ones enacted rename post offices. And the Trump endorsement she remade her whole career to win went, twice, to her opponents. Every figure and quote below is public and dated.

Kevin McCarthy says Mace was not in the running for Trump's endorsement
On Fox News' Sunday Night in America, former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy rejected the premise that Donald Trump had snubbed Nancy Mace by endorsing another candidate in South Carolina's 2026 Republican gubernatorial primary. McCarthy told Trey Gowdy that Trump had been looking at the attorney general and lieutenant governor, criticized Mace's truthfulness, placed her around fifth, and said she was not in the running for the endorsement. Fox later posted the clip behind its FOX One subscription roadblock, and Internet Archive's TV News capture preserves the broadcast transcript around 6:19-6:20 p.m. PDT.
