West Virginia Democratic Senator Joe Manchin has fueled speculation he will run as a third-party candidate in the 2024 presidential election. Manchin appeared alongside Republican former Utah Governor Jon Huntsman at an event in New Hampshire on Monday, arguing U.S. voters are frustrated by the growing divide between the two major political parties.

Sen. Joe Manchin: “I’m not here running for president tonight. I’m not. I’m here trying to basically save the nation.”

Senator Manchin is the biggest recipient of fossil fuel money in Congress. Monday’s event was organized by the billionaire-backed organization No Labels, which is exploring whether to run a third-party candidate for president. The Progressive Change Campaign Committee wrote on social media, “No Labels is nothing more than a Republican front-group. They’re staffed by Republicans, bankrolled by Republicans, and their third party gambit will only help elect MAGA Republicans like Trump. Joe Manchin just gives them the patina of bipartisanship.”
