Centurion is the second announced challenger to Republican congresswoman Nancy Mace, who has enraged conservatives in her district by turning on former U.S. president Donald Trump.

Mace captured the first district thanks to a razor-thin victory over Democrat Joe Cunningham, who won the seat by an even slimmer margin in 2018.

A former employee of Trump’s 2016 campaign, Mace ripped her old boss in no uncertain terms for his alleged role in inciting the mob violence that went down at the U.S. capitol on January 6, 2021.
