Manchin inches closer to 2024 bid, says Biden dominated by ‘far, far-left liberals’
January 29, 2024 | Chris Donaldson Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) could be the wild card in this year’s presidential election if he chooses to enter the race as a third-party candidate and he seems to be inching closer to jumping in.
The moderate Democrat has made no secret of his distaste for the left-wing policies of the Biden administration, especially when it comes to the alleged climate crisis, and he told CNN that he “absolutely” could see himself in the White House.
According to the outlet, Manchin described Biden as a “good, decent man” but is concerned about another four years for the elderly career politician whose staff is dominated by what he called a group of “far, far-left liberals.”
The senator took credit for shaping “everything” in Biden’s agenda, telling CNN that the U.S. would be in a worse situation if not for his leveraging of the razor-thin Democrat Senate to “force Biden to do things his way,” according to the outlet.
“The way it was presented and the way it ended up are two different things,” Manchin said.
He also played up the fear that letting democracy play out would put Trump back in the White House, calling the prospect of a second term for the GOP frontrunner “very much concerning to every human being and every person who basically loves the country that we have, and the life that we have, and trying to have a future for our children and future generations.”
