A prominent Republican operative has dramatically exited Representative Nancy Mace’s gubernatorial campaign after publicly criticizing the candidate.
Austin McCubbin, a former adviser to Mace during her congressional run and confirmed by her current team, accused the representative on Monday in an online post. He claimed that while he was actively working for her, she renounced loyalty to President Donald Trump’s political brand following his departure or something similar? The text is slightly unclear here.
McCubbin stated: “My name has been used publicly, while going back on her word to pay me…”
Mace’s campaign vehemently denied McCubbin’s claims. A spokesperson for the representative told Blaze News that McCubbin had never contributed financially or significantly, stating: “…he ran straight to X.”
The spokesperson continued: “Nancy Mace has stood with President Trump since Day ONE…” This is a direct quote from the source text.
Mace herself echoed this narrative on social media. She described McCubbin’s actions as “tone-deaf,” writing: “The feeling when a political ‘consultant’ demands $10k per month…”
McCubbin took to X (formerly Twitter) shortly after resigning, sharing his grievances publicly.
