'True MAGA Supporters' Spark Raft of County Republican Party Resignations

Several high-ranking county GOP officials have resigned after pressure from a group of outspoken critics questioning their leadership.

Greenville County Republican Party's Chairman Jennifer Black, First Vice Chairman Stacy Shea and Executive Committeeman Randy Page released a statement announcing their departures on Thursday.

This came after a group called mySCGOP, a South Carolina group of Republicans backing a "MAGA agenda," alongside members of the Greenville Tea Party, questioned the legitimacy of the convention that led to their leadership. MAGA stands for Make America Great Again, a phrase linked with former President Donald Trump.

In joint remarks, shared via the Fresh Leadership for Greenville GOP page, on Facebook, those who resigned said: "While we have longed for the opportunity to jointly develop strategies, connect, and do the real work, we have been constantly railroaded the entire time, directly caused by leadership from MYSCGOP and the Greenville Tea Party. It has been made exponentially clear to us by leadership within these entities that their focus will solely be on continued in-fighting, discord, and placing continual barriers to any attempts at effective work on our behalf, rather than coming together jointly to be effective in the political landscape against our real opponents.

Some real howlers in the comments section like these ones:

“Maga people are the true RINOS of you think about it and they have no Republican values!”

“MAGA’s goal is the destruction of America and democracy”

“Everywhere there are Republicans, you will find discord. At the government level, at the party level, within the society. Deliberate discord for its own sake. Not for the sake of the country and certainly not for any legislative agenda of any value.”

RINO is just a euphemism for Deep Stater.

From the “not msn news” story about these resignations, we find out what really happened:

“Of interest? Thursday afternoon's group resignation came just two days after a special committee (appointed by Black) uncovered a questionable “ballot harvesting” operation that helped these three politicos defeat their right-wing rivals at the April 2021 county party convention. According to the committee's report (.pdf), unknown donors to the SCGOP subsidized a controversial delegate recruitment effort in the days leading up to the county convention – enabling Black, Shea and Page to defeat their rivals in what critics contend was a “rigged” vote.

Implementing this recruitment effort? Multiple “agents of the party” – including one SCGOP field operative and multiple state lawmakers, according to sources familiar with the operation.”

But, you see, ABCNNBCBS (msn.com) do NOT want to reveal "that information.

The discord is because the Rinos have been cooperating with Communist democrats,that’s the problem,Rinos are cowards and are in it for just the power and money.
If you can’t see people that actually stand up for American Values not left wing race baiting,censorship by all the social networks you are the problem.
If this was posted on Facebook it would be banned,thank God for President Trump taking these communist bastards to court

I’m encouraged!

They discovered the fraud...BALLOT HARVESTING...and ACTED ON IT.

If this sort of behavior continues, we may start winning legally again.

Awww, Rinos encountered discord from folks who didn’t agree with them. Poor babies! I guess real life is too hard for them. The slime that helped put them in office must have assured them that the fix was in and there was nothing to worry about. Must have been a shock to find out they had been lied to.

They aren’t RINOs, they are assistant Democrats.
