The Daily Show Skewers MAGA Rep Nancy Mace for Supporting Trump and Other GOP Sexual Predators

There is a lot to be worried about now that Donald Trump is about to reoccupy the White House. His Cabinet and staff nominations thus far are a nightmare rotation of hacks, halfwits, and hopelessly felicitous followers of the Trump cult. Many of this motley crew were recruited from Fox News, because Trump’s foremost prerequisite for hiring is that he has seen the candidate slobbering over him on TV.

Donald Trump, Woman, Fear

At times like these it becomes necessary to have some emotional escape in order to maintain some measure of mental health and to reenergize for the battles ahead. And since laughter is the best medicine, it ought to be prescribed in large doses. That’s where programs like The Daily Show come in. And it also helps that they are often better sources for news than much of the traditional media.

This week The Daily Show host, Desi Lydic, addressed the purely performative attacks on transgender Rep-Elect Sarah McBride by Republican Nancy Mace (SC-MAGA). Lydic noted the inherent prejudice of Mace’s hate speech as well as her blatant hypocrisy. And she names names. Lydic lashed out at Mace saying that…

“Yes, of course, you just want to protect women from hypothetical predators. That would play a lot better if you weren’t trying to get actual predators into the highest levels of government. Pete Hegseth, RFK, Matt Gaetz.”

Lydic goes on to play a video clip of Mace complaining about men in women’s spaces, followed by a clip of serial predator Trump bragging about invading the private spaces of women…

“I’ll go backstage before a show and everyone’s getting dressed and everything else. And you know, no men are anywhere. And I’m allowed to go in, because I’m the owner of the pageant and therefore I’m inspecting it.”

That sounds conspicuously similar to Trump’s boast that “when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab ’em by the p*ssy.” He truly believes that he has the right to sexually harass and assault women at will. And Mace is perfectly fine with this, so long as it doesn’t involve a transgender woman in the ladies restroom. Funny, but I never hear people like Mace talk about trans men in the ladies restroom…

Mace’s obsession was evident in her 36 hour marathon posting of more than 250 tweets on this subject. However, one thing that she neglected to mention in all of that was her position on LGBTQ+ rights just three years ago when she said that

“I strongly support LGBTQ rights and equality. No one should be discriminated against. I have friends and family that identify as LGBTQ. Understanding how they feel and how they’ve been treated is important. Having been around gay, lesbian, and transgender people has informed my opinion over my lifetime.”

That’s quite a reversal. What changed? Was it that she decided that sucking up to Trump was more important than standing up for equal rights? Or was it just her ploy to get more airtime on Fox News?

More importantly, will the rest of media display the journalistic integrity of The Daily Show by exposing Trump and his Cabinet cretins as the sexual deviants that they are?

Hopefully the Senate will exercise their constitutional duty of advice and consent to prevent these sleazeballs from attaining positions of power. And not just because of their utter lack of morals. But also because they have zero experience for the jobs they have been nominated to do by the Sleazeball-in-Chief.

Although Trump isn’t gonna make it easy for them. He’s considering foregoing the routine FBI checks for proposed presidential appointments. Because he knows his nominees won’t pass. Even worse, he has called for Congress to abdicate their role by closing up shop and allowing him to make recess appointments. These are the tactics of a totalitarian dictator, which is what Trump aspires to be.
