Nancy Mace and Alan Wilson take their feud national as SC governor's race intensifies
Caitlin Byrd ·
The Post and Courier framed the dueling CNN appearances by Rep. Nancy Mace and Attorney General Alan Wilson as a nationally televised escalation of their rivalry in the 2026 South Carolina Republican gubernatorial primary. The two candidates appeared on the same CNN program on consecutive nights to trade accusations about the Charleston Airport incident.

Senior politics reporter Caitlin Byrd placed the Mace, Wilson airport dispute squarely within the context of the 2026 South Carolina GOP governor's race, noting that both candidates used their separate CNN platforms to attack each other's credibility. Mace appeared first, accusing Wilson of orchestrating the airport police report as a political hit; Wilson appeared the following night denying the claim and calling it "delusional."
