Trump snubs Mace with S.C. gov endorsement of Pam Evette
President Trump endorsed Lt. Gov. Pam Evette over Rep. Nancy Mace in South Carolina's gubernatorial race, calling Evette an 'America First Patriot' and 'WINNER' in a Truth Social post. The endorsement represents a significant snub to the incumbent congresswoman and could reshape the competitive GOP primary.
