Nancy Mace Presented Her Seven-Step Plan to End the Iran War in a Leather Catsuit. The Comment Section Did Not Engage With the Seven-Step Plan.
Nancy Mace wore a skin-tight black leather catsuit to host a Get Maced episode featuring her seven-step plan to end the Iran war. The X post drew 560+ replies, nearly all of them images: every Catwoman from Julie Newmar to Halle Berry, Trinity from The Matrix, Black Widow, Batgirl, Bond Girls, and an AI-generated gender-swap parody reimagining her as a man in the same catsuit. Mace's own response: 'Ok, I might do it again next week!'
On September 25, 2026, Nancy Mace took her seat at the "Get Maced" podcast desk in a skin-tight black leather catsuit, zipper at center, for an episode she titled "The EASIEST Questions in Politics."
She had a seven-step plan to end the Iran war.
The comment section had other priorities.
Mace at the "Get Maced" set, September 25, 2026. The "GET MACED" neon sign and a signed basketball in a display case are visible behind her.
The same September 25, 2026 episode. The center-zip black leather catsuit is fully in frame.
Another frame from the episode. The full catsuit, matching leather gloves, and center zipper are visible as she speaks.
Within hours, the post on X drew more than 560 replies. The overwhelming majority were not text. They were images: Michelle Pfeiffer's Catwoman (posted again and again). Halle Berry's Catwoman. Julie Newmar's Catwoman. Trinity in The Matrix. Black Widow from the Avengers. A Catwoman still branded HBO Max. And an AI-generated gender-swap parody, posted by @notriteorleft, that reimagined Mace as a long-haired man in the same leather catsuit at the same desk.
Mace's YouTube comment section, 233 responses deep within hours, was more of the same.
Nobody mentioned the Iran plan.
The Episode
The video is titled "The EASIEST Questions in Politics | Nancy Mace" and runs on her YouTube channel @NancyRMace.
Content covered: Kamala Harris and a birthing-persons roundtable; Hasan Piker and alleged promotion of political violence against Chuck Schumer; an Iranian-American student asking Abdul El-Sayed to denounce Iran; Mace's seven-step plan to end the Iran war.
The outfit: full black leather catsuit. Tight. Zipper at center. News ticker running along the bottom of the frame. The "GET MACED" neon sign glowing pink behind her.
The X Post: 560+ Replies, Essentially a Catwoman Archive
The YouTube comments were mostly text. The X replies were mostly images.
When Mace posted the episode clip to her X account at @NancyMace, the thread that followed became something between a fan gallery and a forensic catalog of every black leather suit in the history of film and television. More than 560 replies arrived within hours. Observers reported that attempting to scroll through them was like falling into a Wikipedia rabbit hole organized around one question: which fictional woman in leather does she look most like?
The answer, per the thread: all of them.
The standout image reply came from @notriteorleft: an AI-generated gender-swap parody, captioned "You look like a drag queen in that outfit Mancy," that reimagined Mace as a long-haired man in the same leather catsuit at the same Get Maced desk. It was one of the more widely-shared AI images in the thread.
The GIF that got 44 likes: @DJ_Phillie posted Michelle Pfeiffer's Catwoman from Batman Returns, with the caption "She knows. We know. She knows that we know. Still, she doesn't care. Nancy 'Catwoman' Mace."
"She knows. We know. She knows that we know." @DJ_Phillie's Catwoman GIF reply (44 likes). The comment thread in order: the Michelle Pfeiffer version from Batman Returns.
@authenticMrF posted Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow and asked: "Do you answer the question of why you are dressed like this character?" (17 likes, 1.5K views).
@authenticMrF: "Do you answer the question of why you are dressed like this character?" (17 likes). Black Widow. Black leather. The resemblance was noted.
@EvanKirstel posted the trajectory: a "HOW IT STARTED / HOW IT'S GOING" meme placing Mace's "Stop sending d*ck pics. Subscribe to the podcast" post next to her "Go COCKS!" moment at the Gamecocks game five days earlier. 62 likes. 3.5K views.
62 likes, 3.5K views. @EvanKirstel's character arc summary: left panel, "Stop sending dck pics. Subscribe to the podcast." Right panel, "Go COCKS!" in a crowd.*
The Catwoman Franchise, Fully Represented
The thread functioned as a complete census of every actor who has played Catwoman:
Julie Newmar (1966, Batman TV series). The original. The one who established the leather-suit-as-character-signature. Multiple replies posted her photo. @dermotmurphy4622 on YouTube asked if Mace had "been reincarnated as Julie Newmar." The consensus: spiritually, yes.
Michelle Pfeiffer (Batman Returns, 1992). The fan favorite. Stitched-together black vinyl, whip, haunted eyes. Multiple viewers reported this version was posted most frequently in the X thread.
Halle Berry (Catwoman, 2004). The one critics called the worst superhero film of the decade. It won four Razzie Awards. The internet posted it anyway. @factfinder4839 on YouTube simply wrote: "Halle Berry move over."
Anne Hathaway (The Dark Knight Rises, 2012). The sleek, tactical version. Goggles. Motorcycle. Posted.
All four versions of the same character, in one comment thread, about a political podcast.
The Extended Universe
The comparisons did not stop at Catwoman.
Trinity, The Matrix (1999). Carrie-Anne Moss. Black leather. Saves humanity. @RQD2Official called it on YouTube: "Sporting the Trinity suit." @GreenOD confirmed: "rockin the Trinity look." Multiple image replies in the X thread.
Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow, the Marvel Cinematic Universe. @johnhouseman1901: "the Black Widow outfit is awesome!" @xshaadrackx1919, concisely: "Black widow." @rextucker3184, dramatically: "Avengers Black Widow survived. How nice."
Selene, Underworld (2003). Kate Beckinsale. Black leather. Fights werewolves in a damp European castle. @KennethMeeker-i2v: "Rocking that underworld outfit!"
Batgirl, various portrayals. @joelange3774: "Putting on your batgirl mask and go fight crime." @lc3763: "Sexy BatWoman."
Bond Girls, generically. @MDempsey79: "Holy Bond Girl, Nancy!" @lonewolfy5330: "the secret agent leather outfit." @michaelgibson6812: "0007 nancy."
Charlie's Angels. @michaelgibson6812 mentioned this twice, in separate comments, apparently overwhelmed.
The complete list of distinct fictional women in black leather identified and posted runs to at least twelve. One episode. One outfit. Twelve fictional precedents located and documented within hours.
What the Comment Section Did Not Do
Nobody posted about the Iran plan.
Not one commenter on YouTube engaged with the substance of the seven-step framework Mace outlined for ending the conflict. The nearest anyone got was one viewer who disagreed with a ceasefire position. They called her dumb. They did not mention the leather.

One commenter, @joesCrazyChannnel, dissented:
"Dress like an adult. Bad look for us Republicans."

Mace Responded Herself (Then Immediately Set Up Next Week's Episode)
Mace read the comments and replied directly, multiple times.
On the catsuit reaction generally (13 likes):
"Funny! I might do this look again!"
And then, to a separate reply (7 likes):
"Ok, I might do it again next week!"
She also replied to a commenter calling her "gorgeous":
"Thank you James"
And to the "Leather And Mace" joke (4 likes):
"ha!"
This was her actual, documented response to the thread. Not a correction. Not a pivot back to Iran policy. "I might do it again next week."
She clocked the engagement, she liked what she saw, and she turned a compliment thread into a teaser for next week's episode. The catsuit generated 694K views, 579 replies, 3.4K likes, and 346 retweets in under 24 hours. The seven-step Iran plan did not appear to factor into any of these numbers.
The move was textbook content creator: discover your hook, confirm it works, announce you will use it again before the audience forgets.
Context: The Reinvention Continues
This appearance comes five days after the "Go COCKS!" post at the Gamecocks game drew nearly 7,000 replies. Mace is no longer in Congress. She runs a podcast called "Get Maced" out of what appears to be a custom studio, complete with a neon sign, a professional microphone setup, a signed basketball in a display case, and, as of September 25, 2026, a full black leather catsuit.
She has a seven-step plan to end the Iran war.
The comment section has a better one involving Halle Berry.

September 29, 2026 · DispatchIs Nancy Mace on OnlyFans Yet? She Just Mocked 'OnlyFans Is Empowerment' on Her Podcast. Eighteen Months of Receipts Say the Question Was Already Being Asked About Her.
On the September 28 Get Maced episode, Nancy Mace mocked 'the left' for saying 'OnlyFans is empowerment, strippers are CEOs' - introducing the line with 'Same crowd,' making clear she was attributing it to Democrats, not endorsing it. The irony: her OWN crowd has been asking if SHE is on OnlyFans for 18 months. The full record: she displayed her own nude photo in a congressional hearing in May 2025; her former aide testified under oath she tried to weaponize nude photos as real-estate leverage; she posted crop-top content that generated 'OnlyFans when??' headlines in April 2025; conservative media used her as the example of a 'springboard into OnlyFans'; a bar in her own SC-01 district circulated a parody beer can reading 'Nancy Mace's OnlyFans Soft Launch'; and four days before the episode she hosted her podcast in a leather catsuit while commenters asked about 'OnlyFans aesthetics.' She does not have an OnlyFans. Her own fans have been asking for 18 months.

On the October 1, 2026 episode of her Get Maced podcast, Nancy Mace told her audience, 'Full disclosure, I'm a politician. I have gotten into an altercation or two in my time. I'm sort of, kind of known for it. Watch this.' She then played House floor footage of herself from November 2025, when a clerk read her resolution to censure Rep. Cory Mills, and narrated it: 'I'm standing in the corner, staring down Cory Mills. I may have said a four-letter word or two, telling him how I really feel.' She called Mills 'a teetotal POS' and added, 'I'm also the one that told Jasmine Crockett to take it outside.' Every quote is verbatim from her video.

October 7, 2026 · Dispatch'It's Pedophilia. It's Grooming.': Nancy Mace Calls Texas Senate Candidate James Talarico a Groomer and 'Not a Christian,' on a Poll Number No Published Poll Shows
In her October 1, 2026 Get Maced episode, Rep. Nancy Mace spent about five minutes on James Talarico, the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Texas, over his record on transgender athletes in girls' sports. She said 'It's disgusting. It's pedophilia. It's grooming. And here's a so-called Christian running on it,' told viewers 'You should not vote for this guy,' and said that someone who 'doesn't protect women in private spaces where they're undressed isn't a Christian,' while also saying 'I'm not carrying the water for anyone in this race.' She opened the segment with 'Ken Paxton is now three points ahead of Talarico.' The Fox News poll taken September 24 to 28 had Talarico ahead, 51 to 49, and Maceopedia found no published poll with Paxton ahead by three. Every characterization of Talarico in this entry is hers. The site's own voice is confined to the poll number and the public record.
