New York Magazine profiles Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC).
“She was obsessed with monitoring her reputation online. In addition to reportedly having her staff create burner accounts to defend her, Mace allegedly instructed a staffer to go on Reddit forums about the ‘hottest women in Congress’ to boost her standing in the rankings and comment where needed. Mace was “very adamant” about getting the staffer to upvote any posts about the congresswoman and her attractiveness.”
Said one former aide: “We were scared of her. She would make staffers cry. She would threaten to fire them, take their money away, not give them raises, not to give them days off, religious days… The closer you get to her, the harder she messes up your brain.”
