Former staffers for Rep. Nancy Mace revealed that they were encouraged to create burner accounts on social media to defend her image and combat criticisms. These anonymous staff members described engaging in deceptive practices by replying to comments and amplifying Mace's public perception. Wesley Donehue, a consultant who worked for Mace, noted her tech-savvy approach, including programming bots and managing her voter database. Mace's communications director, however, denied the allegations, emphasizing that Mace prioritizes her relationship with constituents over personal matters.
We had to make multiple accounts, burner accounts, and go and reply to comments, saying things that weren't true... there were actual things we could be doing to help the constituents.
She programs her own bots. She sits all night on the couch and programs bots, because she's very, very computer savvy.
It would be a slap in the face to taxpayers across the country for me to spend time on their dime commenting on my boss's personal life.
