“There was no alternative. There was no other path,” Meijer said. “And given how President Biden, when he was elected into office, said he would be moderate and look for bipartisan solutions. But then after, and frankly, I blame the former president for this, after we lost the two senate seats in Georgia and the Senate flipped, it became an exercise in trying to be an LBJ or FDR style presidency and enact transformational change in the absence of any compelling mandate from the American people to do so.”
Meijer went on to highlight the “steep divide” between those who continue to support the former president and those who do not, partially blaming it on President Joe Biden’s desire to implement “transformational change” in the United States.
“So that gave the rallying signal. That created a very steep divide, and at the end of the day, there’s no other option right now in the Republican Party, and that’s a sad testament,” Meijer added.
