Of course the transphobe makes another scene.

It’s worth noting that McBride represents just as many people as Mace—actually, more. McBride received 282,000 votes, significantly outpacing Mace’s 169,000. While Mace represents South Carolina’s 1st Congressional District, with a population of 734,000, McBride represents the entire state of Delaware, home to one million people. On the House floor, every representative wields equal voting power. McBride has as much right to represent her constituents as Mace does.

No, Marjorie Taylor Greene is Nancy Mace's equal -- same mean-spirited, attention-whoring mindset.

Agreed, it's offensive to imagine that Nancy Mace is anyone's equal.

She has no right to think she is above anyone else.

Mace better be careful: The very same thinking she's spouting thinks that women who won't or can't have children for any reason are lesser women. It's the same reasoning: That women serve a very specific biological purpose and any other position--such as being elected to Congress(!)--is an affront to God/nature.

There is no more quiet part.
