Special: Is Trump Innocent or Guilty?
News Alert
On Friday, Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) officially left the Democratic Party and registered as an independent. This significant political move follows his earlier consideration of an independent presidential bid. While Manchin has declared that he will not run for Senate re-election, his departure from the Democratic Party offers him the flexibility to reconsider his political future. He may still choose to run for the Senate or the West Virginia governorship as an independent candidate.
In his statement announcing the decision, Manchin criticized both the Democratic and Republican parties for their “partisan extremism,” which he believes is endangering the health of American democracy. He expressed his frustration with the current state of national politics, highlighting the lack of willingness from both sides to compromise and find common ground.
Manchin stated, “Today, our national politics are broken and neither party is willing to compromise to find common ground. To stay true to myself and remain committed to putting country before party, I have decided to register as an independent with no party affiliation and continue to fight for America’s sensible majority.”
