Nancy Mace says she would ban “chemtrails” if she is elected as South Carolina’s next governor.

The congresswoman from the Palmetto State made the remark unprompted after a question from the audience at a town hall event on Wednesday (August 6) about removing fluoride from drinking water.

So-called “chemtrails” are a long-running conspiracy theory which believes condensation trails from aircraft are actually the government dispersing biological agents into the air.

Mace announced her gubernatorial run on Monday.
