New Jersey voters have long wondered where Jack Ciattarelli truly stands. Thanks to newly surfaced footage, the mask is slipping \u2014 and the truth is more damning than many suspected. Jack\u2019s repeated attempts to posture as a \u201cconservative\u201d are now undeniably exposed for what they are: political theater, carefully crafted for primary votes while his real loyalties remain with the Democratic establishment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fields says, without hesitation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fields doesn\u2019t speak in vague speculation; he claims firsthand knowledge of Jack\u2019s political games, including a recent diner meeting where Ciattarelli allegedly sought counsel and comfort from Murphy\u2019s top advisor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s not like a huge MAGA person\u2026 a lot of it is just political theater.

Fields continues:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe has to pretend to be a Trumpy conservative, but he\u2019s not. He\u2019s actually very moderate\u2026 But he has to act like a staunch conservative to win the primary.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is not a misunderstanding. It\u2019s not a rumor. This is a top Democrat insider openly confirming that Jack Ciattarelli is knowingly deceiving conservative voters. Even more alarming, Fields says,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThey [Trump and Ciattarelli] really don\u2019t like each other\u2026 I talked to him directly. I saw him at the diner last week. It\u2019s all an act. He can\u2019t stand the guy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The duplicity continues when Fields casually reveals Ciattarelli\u2019s true policy positions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s pro-choice, for example. He\u2019s not going to say that on the campaign trail, but he\u2019s pro-choice. He believes in stronger restrictions for guns.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let that sink in. Jack Ciattarelli is running as a Republican, asking for conservative support, while privately confiding to Democrats that he supports abortion rights, gun restrictions, and has no real respect for the conservative movement or its voters. He is actively working both sides \u2014 lying to one, and cozying up to the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is not just politics as usual. This is betrayal. Ciattarelli is not simply a moderate trying to build a big tent \u2014 he\u2019s a political actor wearing a costume, hoping conservatives won\u2019t notice until it\u2019s too late. But now the truth is on record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New Jersey deserves better than a man who says one thing to Republican voters and another to Democratic operatives behind closed doors. If Jack Ciattarelli is willing to meet with Governor Murphy\u2019s inner circle and confide in them, if he\u2019s willing to adopt Democratic talking points and deceive the base that made him relevant \u2014 then he\u2019s not a Republican.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He\u2019s a Democrat.
