Sen. Joe Manchin indicated that he has not abandoned hope of endorsing President Joe Biden in November, but claimed where he is now is too far to the left.
Manchin said there was still time for Biden to earn his support, but he wanted the old Biden who was a unifier back rather than one who listens to the far-left members of his party.MSNBC’s Katy Tur. “Always working a deal, always wanting to bring people together, which is how he campaigned in 2020. I think his staff is taking him too far left. I don’t believe that’s where he needs to be. I don’t believe that’s where he is, internally, never has been, and love to see him come back to that.
Manchin cited one example of backing away from the far Left would be for the president to step up and take control of the immigration crisis on the U.S. “I’m begging him now, if this can’t be fixed in Congress, to basically declare a national emergency because the border is of national concern and a national emergency,” Manchin said.
Manchin also encouraged Biden to return to the center of the party because that’s where more votes lie. Manchin claimed the election would come down to who has a stronger base, which he claims is currently former President“There’s too many people I know sitting on the sidelines who won’t vote for either one. They’re the ones that have to make a choice,” Manchin said. “Donald Trump has his base secured.
