Joe Manchin: “There is not a person here, Republican or Democrat, you hear a lot about politics, you have united Congress.”

We’re not trying to start another party.

We got a runaway debt. We got inflation that's killing people. We've got an unsecured energy. We have a border that's out of control.

We’re trying to get a person who can be committed to — and totally committed to – being an independent with an independent voice.

We don't even have a budget anymore.
