Despite his previous criticisms of Mace, he joined Arrington in conceding the race on Tuesday night, saying she would “easily” win reelection over Democrat Annie Andrews, who ran uncontested.
“Katie Arrington was a long shot but ran a great race and way over performed. Congrats to Nancy Mace, who should easily be able to defeat her Democrat opponent!” Trump wrote in a post on his social media platform Truth Social.
His congratulations come just two days after his Save America PAC released a statement saying Mace was “despised by almost everyone” in a last-minute push for her opponent.
In an interview with CNN last year, Mace said that Trump’s “entire legacy was wiped out” on January 6. But she ultimately decided against voting for his impeachment.
