Mr. Wilder (South Carolina)

Wilder is an off‑stage congressional roll‑call voter identified by surname and state—South Carolina—whose recorded 'yea' vote resolves a tense legislative moment for the White House staff. Presented anonymously and procedurally, Wilder functions as a counted stake in the administration’s narrow margin rather than a speaking, on‑stage policymaker. His presence anchors the scene’s political reality: a nametagged, dependable legislative actor whose single vote converts private staff anxiety into public victory and restores morale.
