The AI "poop" video
Hours after an emotional CNN appearance about Epstein-file victims, Rep. Nancy Mace posted an AI-generated video depicting herself as a fighter pilot dumping waste on a male figure, drawing widespread mockery for trying to "out-Trump Trump."

The Daily Beast reported that Rep. Nancy Mace posted an AI-generated video to X on the evening of November 17, 2025, hours after an emotional CNN appearance in which she discussed Epstein-file victims, depicting herself as a fighter pilot and dumping a plane-load of waste on a male figure. The headline framed it as Mace trying to "out-Trump Trump," a reference to a similar AI clip President Trump had posted on Truth Social the prior month showing himself doing the same thing during the nationwide "No Kings" protests. The Independent, syndicated via Yahoo News, described it as Mace "taking a page out of Trump's playbook by posting a scatalogical meme of herself on X as a pilot dumping a plane-load of AI poop on an unsuspecting victim." The juxtaposition (grave television advocacy for abuse victims followed within hours by a crude AI attack on a personal adversary) was, for critics, the whole point: a self-inflicted window into her judgment and character.
Mace captioned the video with a Top Gun reference:
"Sorry Goose, but it's time to buzz the tower."
The post accumulated 3.5 million views. The male figure depicted as the target of the dive-bombing resembled Patrick Bryant, Mace's former fiancé and her adversary in ongoing civil litigation. The competing allegations between Mace and Bryant are contested and unproven, and each has denied the other's claims.
