Nancy Mace becomes social media laughingstock after questionable claim of assault by 'pro-trans man'

South Carolina Congresswoman Nancy Mace is now being mocked on social media due to a recent incident in which she had a pro-trans advocate arrested for assault. 

She's being mocked for two reasons:

1. A witness contends the incident involved a simple handshake and that she blew it out of proportion.

2. Mace has a reputation on Capitol Hill for public actions and publicity stunts designed to grab attention and get her interviewed on cable news and podcasts. This alleged incident happened on the heels of a public campaign she began to bar Delaware Congresswoman Sarah McBride banned from using the women's restroom. McBride is the first trans woman ever to be elected to Congress.
