There is a con game imploding all over the Commonwealth. This peculiar episode started as a misbegotten PAC (Comic Con) drafting an obvious lunatic and likely provocateur to run for GOP State Committee. Having these same characters involved on the Mass for Trump effort and a story that the Bolshevist media would salivate over to hurt Trump exacerbated the threat. Now those threatening the Patriot movement in the MassGOP are blaming it for the presence of this “candidate”. Yes, the very ones who exposed the story are being accused of the crime committed by their own operatives.
To give the reader more clarity I must describe the battle being waged and the opposing sides involved. The clearest divide are among those supporting President Trump and those opposing him. What is far muddier are the battlelines within the GOP including here in Massachusetts. Yes, there are Republicans opposed to President Trump, not for honest reasons but for avarice and greed mingled with resentment. They are represented by what are known as the “establishment” more correctly an apparatus dedicated to the concept that all men were not created equal. Trump has aptly named them the “Deep State”. Who determines this ruling elite is decided by the time honored law of the jungle. Reverence, Truth and Justice are replaced by apostacy, deceit and arbitrariness. If this seems eerily similar to the Democrats, Communists, Fascists and Jihadis it is because they are all a part of the same globalist curse. However their ask is to undermine any hint of opposition where it exists. In this case that would be the MassGOP. No, not the part controlled by the assorted apparatchiks and Fifth Columnists as we had been to accustomed. It would be the part infused with the spirit of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness, the Patriots. That banner is now being carried by Donald J. Trump.
Now to disentangling this twisted mess forced upon us. After more than a year of warning both strong and weak allies about these dangers and being largely ignored you and we must deal with the consequences. First the organization known colloquially as the Comic Con was enabled in their increasing buffoonery to operate as a semi-credible entity. Their several misdeeds went unpunished. This culminating in one of their actual candidates (out of 4), the once and soon to be again notorious Lori Kaufman (R) Dorchester. Despite his protestations to the contrary PAC chief Chris Ryan knew about her pro Nazi/Hamas postings and hid them from the public at least three months prior to their revelations. We have proof of this. Our concern was and is the damage that the statist media would inflict on Trump over this. There was a debate on the floor of the next State Committee meeting, presided over by Amy Carnavale. No blame was placed upon the Comic Con PAC at the time though their role was brought to the SC’s attention . Now she and talk show host Howie Carr are sending out the Lori Kaufman saga on their terms. Why now? Possibly the Broadside story over the last few days has triggered some action. They are blaming former Chairman Jim Lyons who had no role in this candidacy. Actually the Comic Con PAC mimics Carr’s website, showing unbridled support for him and Amy. This as they shower support for a host of anti-Trump(some albeit in disguise)SC candidates.
That is not all that has changed, former anti Trump Amy Carnavale now posts pictures posing with him as if she was one of the faithful. Am I being ungracious in the face of unity? We have had people supporting other candidates who now genuinely and enthusiastically support Trump. I do not believe Amy nor her minions are among them. If her support was genuine, she would not be acting the way she is now. First in supporting anti-Trump candidates, second in framing the Lori Kaufman story in way which serves most to damage Trump. It is the same case for Carr who claims to support Trump but is taking action that most damages his campaign in Massachusetts. Worst of all the game of deceit hurled against us concerning the Comic Cons. Suggesting that PAC is supporting Lyons or his allies is duplicitous. They are supporting the same candidates as Carr and Amy endorsed and proclaim themselves on their team! They spread and copy (as is their custom) everything Carr and Amy post and heartily endorse all their viewpoints. They even use Carr’s pejoratives when referring to Lyons and his allies. Who’s minions are they really? Their own words tell us.
There are many good people on the Trump 4 Mass team that are as enraged by this as we are. They want Trump to succeed and work hard to ensure that. The current head of the Mass for Trump organization was asked to remove both Chris Ryan and his PAC acolyte Doug Lyman from their posts he had given them. His response was that “we all need to work together”. That was a month ago. In the face of the damage done, with this story hitting the Boston papers,why on earth do these two remain on that team? There are others on named to that team with dubious qualities and sympathies. At least one was removed after pressure from Trump supporters including other members of that team. These same members have vocalized misgivings about the Comic Cons including their performance on Mass for Trump. There is no place for saboteurs on this team if the purpose is to help Trump. If this organization desires to help Trump, any malignancies would be removed and their places taken by loyal and competent replacements. Our talent pool is certainly large enough to accommodate that.
