Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) attempted to troll President Joe Biden on Thursday, but the White House ended up with the high ground on social media.
Mace posted on X, formerly Twitter, that “Biden is MIA” and asked, “Why is no one talking about it?”
Although Mace probably thought she was scoring political points, that’s not exactly what happened.
Right around the time Mace was claiming Biden was missing in action, news broke that his administration had arranged a massive prisoner exchange deal involving multiple countries. The deal freed eight Americans, including journalist Evan Gershkovich and Marine veteran Paul Whelan.
RawStory noted that many people slammed the congresswoman’s badly timed post but, perhaps, no troll tweet hit harder than the one posted by the White House, which needed only three words to put Mace in her place.
Those three words? “He’s been busy,” posted above Biden’s own message about the hostage release.
The reaction to the White House’s mocking of Mace was pretty heated.
Mace responded to the White House mockery a few hours later, trying to spin things in her favor by claiming the president was “busy letting off the mastermind behind 9/11.”
But that just led to more mockery and receipts.
