After Sleepy Joe Biden stole the election from @realDonaldTrump, did you know that Joe Biden personally chose Democrat David Pascoe as his U.S. Attorney for South Carolina? Thankfully, Republicans blocked it. Now Democrat David Pascoe is running as a wannabe “republican” for South Carolina Attorney General. The @SCGOP should not let this Democrat on the ticket!!

Everywhere I’ve gone to speak, from Gaffney to Charleston since last Thursday, I am asked about my thoughts of Attorney General Pam Bondi’s departure. President Trump absolutely made the right call in moving on from AG Bondi -- at the end of the day, promises have to translate into competent action. This is not about personalities, it’s about performance and strategy. But now, the President is ensuring he can appoint an AG who will actually deliver while Republicans still have the votes to confirm. That’s not just smart politics -- that’s putting country first.

NEW: South Carolina “Republican” Attorney General Candidate David Pascoe @davidpascoesc Embraces Biden-Like Political Prosecutions Against Trump Supporters In 2022, South Carolina “Republican” Attorney General candidate David Pascoe, a lifelong Democrat, appeared on Trump hater Will Folks’s @TheWillFolks show to describe how he weaponized justice against Jim Merrill, who served as President Trump’s South Carolina State Director in 2016 for his Presidential campaign. During the interview, Pascoe spoke about the conviction of prominent South Carolina Republican Bobby Harrell, the Former Speaker of the South Carolina House of Representatives, and how it led his team to want to go after more Republicans: “Well we convicted Bobby Harrell in October…I think it was in September of 2014. The SLED agents on the case continued to hammer me ‘Solicitor, what about these other people that we mentioned in the file? Why isn’t anybody looking at them? The attorney general’s office isn’t looking at Merrill and Quinn and the other allegations we have in the report.’ They were pretty fired up about it.” Pascoe went on to say during the interview just how excited he became once he learned he could work around South Carolina AG Alan Wilson to “Get Jim Merrill.” “But the Attorney General went to Richard Quinn for advice on how to get me off of the probe…” Well finally the deputy attorney general at the AG’s office relented. I got a letter out of nowhere, ‘Here, the file is yours. Take it.” As I previously exposed, David Pascoe has deep connections to @JoeBiden’s most prominent inner circle as Hunter Biden’s lawyer Dick Harpootlian @HarpootlianSC has been funding Pascoe for over 15 years, while Jim Clyburn, who saved Biden’s 2020 campaign, endorsed Pascoe as recently as 2024. Maybe Joe Biden learned political weaponization from David Pascoe? WATCH 👇🏻

🚨 ATTENTION SOUTH CAROLINA 🚨 South Carolina “Republican” Attorney General Candidate David Pascoe @davidpascoesc Has Been Funded by Hunter Biden’s Democrat Lawyer Dick Harpootlian for the Last 16 Years A South Carolina ethics report reveals Hunter Biden’s @HunterBiden lawyer Dick Harpootlian @HarpootlianSC, the former Chairman of the South Carolina Democrat Party, has been funding David Pascoe @davidpascoesc’s political endeavors since 2010, first donating to Pascoe’s campaign for Calhoun Solicitor. Pascoe’s close Biden connections don’t end there. In May of 2024, South Carolina Democrat Congressman Jim Clyburn @RepJamesClyburn, endorsed Pascoe’s 1st Circuit Solicitor reelection campaign. Following J6, Clyburn called for President Trump to be impeached and has accused President Trump of being a “racist” on multiple occasions. Clyburn and Biden @JoeBiden have admitted that Clyburn saved Biden’s campaign and essentially installed Biden in the White House. Clyburn played a decisive role in the 2020 presidential election when he endorsed Joe Biden just three days before the South Carolina Democrat primary. At the time, Biden’s campaign was reeling from weak performances in the Iowa caucuses, Nevada caucuses, and New Hampshire primary. Biden went on to win South Carolina convincingly, generating crucial momentum that propelled him to sweep Super Tuesday, secure the Democrat nomination, and ultimately installed himself as “President” when he stole the 2020 Presidential election from President Trump. Clyburn even took credit for this in a 2025 op-ed published on his official U.S. Congressional website, writing: “Biden’s 29-point victory in South Carolina’s 2020 Presidential Primary catapulted him into the presidency, and what a presidency it has been.” Biden also referenced this during his 2020 South Carolina victory speech, saying: “My buddy Jim Clyburn… you brought me back!” Pascoe has been attempting to sell himself to South Carolina voters as a moderate Democrat turned Republican. Some South Carolina voters have no idea that Pascoe was a Democrat his entire life and has been a registered “Republican” for less than one year. Pascoe’s continued associations with Joe Biden’s closest allies prove Pascoe is not really a Republican. David Pascoe, stop lying to voters! RECEIPTS 👇🏻

@FactCheck_SC @SCFreedomCaucus @davidpascoesc Do they need an AG to give them a pass as a quid pro quo? @SCFreedomCaucus has lied to constituents before. I think they’re lying about Pascoe now. Remember Jonathon Hill getting Slammed by Ethics? And then there’s RJ the perv. What else have they done?

The @SCFreedomCaucus holds themselves as the litmus test of conservatism. But they are supporting Democrat @davidpascoesc . Why is that?




@RapidResponse47 We need Fraud Czar JD @VP to investigate Democrat David Pascoe and his friends in South Carolina. It’s always the ones crying corruption that are the most corrupt!







South Carolina voters need to be on *high alert* about a lifelong Democrat @davidpascoesc running for Attorney General as a “Republican”. He fundraised and helped Biden campaign in SC. He said kid sniffin’ Joe Biden was “the most decent man he’s ever met in politics”. And now he’s running as a REPUBLICAN?! Wake up South Carolina to this SCAMMER.
