Hi Mike, Last minute thought; I know but, if by any chance you used Google Takeout to retrieve the Google Plus posts from the LO and/or TDF account pages and (the big one) IF you picked JSON for the type data in the zip file created there is a way to automatically load all the top level posts into MeWe using a tool of their own creation. No idea if it could load to a Page vs User Account but maybe that would be possible.
Anyway, thought I'd mention it. Last minute because I don't know how much longer folks can pull G+ data via Takeout.
