Sen. Joe Manchin refused to endorse President Biden Sunday ahead of his expected 2024 re-election run — and went so far as to suggest he may throw himself into the race against his party’s leader.
“I’m not taking anything off the table. And I’m not putting anything on the table,” the 75-year-old Manchin (D-WV) told CBS’ “Face The Nation,” minutes after throwing cold water on Biden’s re-election bid. “The bottom line is, let’s see who’s involved … Let’s wait until we see who all the players are. Let’s just wait until it all comes out.”
The former West Virginia governor also said he had “plenty of time to make up my mind” and would wait until December to announce whether he will run for another term in the Senate or set his sights on higher office.
“We’ve got a runaway debt, we’ve got inflation that’s killing people, we’ve got unsecured energy, we have a border that’s out of control — you’re telling me we’re in the same ballgame, in the same ballpark? I don’t think so,” added Manchin, who has served in the Senate since 2011.
