Mehdi Hasan Confronts Nancy Mace Over Her Comments About Muslims — Then the Argument Turns Personal Mehdi Hasan: The idea that Zohran Mamdani and Abdul El-Sayed support Sharia law is absurd. They’re more supportive of gay and transgender rights than Nancy Mace. And when Ivanka Trump wore a hijab in a mosque, I don’t remember Nancy Mace attacking her. When Donald Trump wore a kippah at a Jewish institution, she didn’t attack him either. This is about picking on Muslims to get votes. You also said every terrorist is Muslim. That’s simply not true. There are Hindu, Christian and Jewish terrorists too. Mehdi Hasan: You still haven’t explained why you support a woman in a Texas grocery store attacking two Muslim American women and telling them to leave the country. You also support banning Muslims from public office. This is all cynical election politics. Nancy Mace: For the first time in my life, I agree with Donald Trump. You’re an untrustworthy, nasty woman. Mehdi Hasan: Trump endorsed your opponent, and you put out an AI video pretending he endorsed you. Why did you do that? Nancy Mace: This is stupid. You’re trying to smear and defame me. I do not get drunk. Mehdi Hasan: I asked whether you were drunk when you posted the video. Your former communications director told New York Magazine that you had staff members buying alcohol for you during the workday. Nancy Mace: That’s not true. That never happened. Mehdi Hasan: I’m telling you what your former communications director said. Take it up with her. Nancy Mace: You’re making things up and smearing me. Mehdi Hasan: Donald Trump doesn’t like you, your former staff don’t like you, and Muslims don’t like you because of what you’ve said about us.
