Top Trump target in SC gets boost from 2 PACs tied to House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy

House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy has not announced his official support for GOP Rep. Nancy Mace as she tries to hold onto her South Carolina congressional seat, but her fundraising shows that the influential California Republican is still behind Mace even as McCarthy has shown a willingness to purge his party of members who have been vocal critics of former President Donald Trump.

And McCarthy is not the only member of Republican leadership who has been quietly funneling campaign cash to Mace this election cycle.

A review of the latest quarterly fundraising reports filed with the Federal Election Commission show four separate political action committees with ties to three powerful members of GOP leadership shelled out thousands to Mace’s reelection campaign over Trump’s preferred candidate, Katie Arrington.

Of the four PACs that gave to Mace’s campaign coffers this election cycle, two are affiliated with House Minority Leader McCarthy. The two other PACs, respectively, are connected to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky and GOP Whip Rep. Steve Scalise, R-Louisiana, the No. 2 Republican member in the House.

The four PACs linked to GOP leadership gave Mace a combined $30,000.

Not me, because his endorsement record has been so bad.
We will never Make America Great Again by re-electing Assistant Democrats.

I certainly do. Trump's recommendations carry a lot of weight with me.

Thank you Donald Trump. While Biden destroys the Democrats, the destruction and exposure of the GOPe proceeds on schedule.

I’ll vote for Trump and those he endorses. RINOs need not apply.

It’s embarrassing. If you can’t decide for yourself, you probably shouldn’t vote.

I know I’m definitely not voting for Dr. Oz.

I am sorry it appears the weed you are smoking this morning has been laced with PCP (angel dust). For your own safety please go to the emergency room ASAP.

Yes, there are such conservatives. McCarthy is a Swampie and not a conservative.

I listen to what Pres Trump says.

But as of now I lean to Kathy Barnette

However if OZ wins the primary he most certainly has my vote.

WHO ELSE IS THERE?”
