"Joe Manchin Jokes About Being the 'Slightly Younger' President America Needs"

Senator Joe Manchin jokes at a Washington roast about a potential third-party run for the White House, suggesting that the country could benefit from a younger leader than President Joe Biden or former President Donald Trump. Manchin, who recently announced he would not run for reelection in 2024, poked fun at the idea that his candidacy could be a spoiler and defended the political organization No Labels. Some Democrats are concerned that Manchin running as an independent could divide Biden's support and potentially lead to Trump winning a second term.
