Schwarzenegger urges Manchin for 2024 presidency.

Arnold ⁣Schwarzenegger: Joe Manchin Would Be a Better Presidential Candidate Than ⁤Trump or ⁣Biden

Former California Gov. ⁢Arnold Schwarzenegger believes ‌that Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) has the potential ⁣to be a more effective presidential candidate than both former ‌President Donald Trump ‍and President Joe Biden.

During an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Schwarzenegger expressed his ⁢opinion on the 2024 White⁢ House race.‍ He emphasized that candidates‍ other‌ than Biden and Trump deserve more opportunities to succeed.

“I don’t think we give those people enough chance ‌because it’s all Trump, Trump, Trump, Biden, Biden, Biden. ​So,‍ I mean, ‍so these⁢ are the things that the press talks about,” Schwarzenegger stated.

When asked about ‍standout candidates, Schwarzenegger singled‍ out Joe ⁣Manchin, describing him as ⁢”a great force.”

“Joe Manchin​ is one of‌ them that I think stands out because he is kind of ​like a center guy. He ⁣comes from an energy state, but he’s a Democrat. So he knows the challenges and all that. But he’s one of the guys that I think⁢ is ​really‌ a ‍great force,” Schwarzenegger ​expressed.

“But ⁤there’s⁤ many others,” he added, without ‌mentioning specific names. “In general, without endorsing anybody, I think we have to give people a⁢ chance to emerge.

“The political system is set‌ up in ⁤such a way ‌right​ now⁢ that Trump ⁣is ⁢kind ⁢of like⁣ taking the air out of everything, ‌you know, and ⁢Biden is doing it ⁣on ‍the other side. And so it kind of like ⁤comes down to both of them running really ​for president.”

While Manchin ‍has not‍ confirmed whether he​ will run for reelection⁣ in⁣ 2024,​ he has expressed openness⁤ to a presidential bid. Schwarzenegger himself expressed his ‌desire to run for president if he were eligible.

According to recent reports, Manchin has been‍ seriously considering‍ a third-party bid for president. He believes​ he has the ability⁤ to bring people together and address issues without demonizing the other side.

Furthermore, Manchin‍ has expressed‍ concerns about ⁤the ‌current two-party ‍system, warning that it could lead to the downfall‌ of the country unless changes are made.

Similar to Manchin, Robert F. Kennedy ⁤Jr.‌ has also announced his‌ decision to run for president as an independent‌ instead of a Democrat.

The Democratic field for the 2024 ‌presidential ​race⁢ currently includes President Biden, Marianne Williamson, and Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.). However, ⁢Biden’s approval rating ⁤remains low.

According to the latest ‌Gallup poll, Biden’s overall approval⁢ rating dropped to 37 percent in October, matching ‍his ⁤personal low. His approval rating among Democrats also⁤ decreased by 11 percentage ⁣points from⁣ the ⁣previous month.

The Gallup poll ⁣surveyed 1,009 ⁣adults​ from Oct. 2‌ to Oct. 23.

Meanwhile,‍ former President Trump maintains a significant lead in FiveThirtyEight’s GOP​ presidential primary ​poll average,⁣ with 56.9 percent‌ support nationally.

Why does Schwarzenegger believe it is important to give new faces and ideas an opportunity to emerge as viable candidates in the current political landscape ⁢dominated by⁣ Trump and Biden

As the main focus,” Schwarzenegger explained.

Schwarzenegger’s comments come as speculation and discussion surrounding the 2024 presidential⁣ race begins to grow. The former governor of California believes that the constant attention on figures like Donald Trump and Joe Biden leaves little room for other‌ candidates to gain visibility‍ and⁤ consideration.

In his assessment, Schwarzenegger highlights Joe Manchin as a potential standout candidate.‌ Manchin, a Democratic senator⁣ from West Virginia, is described as a “center guy” who understands the challenges of‍ his energy-state background while embracing his Democratic affiliation. Schwarzenegger sees him as a “great force” in the political landscape.

However, Schwarzenegger does ⁣not limit his endorsement to ‌just Manchin. He believes that there are many others who deserve a chance ‌to emerge as viable candidates. The current political​ system, dominated by Trump and Biden, leaves little space for new faces and ideas to come forward. Schwarzenegger​ suggests that it is⁣ important to give these individuals an opportunity to showcase their potential.

The former governor acknowledges that Trump’s presence in politics has consumed much⁣ of⁣ the ⁢public and media⁣ attention, overshadowing other candidates. Similarly,⁢ Biden’s presidency ⁤has also captured significant focus. Schwarzenegger ⁤suggests that ⁢this dynamic prevents ‍the exploration and​ evaluation⁤ of alternative options.

While Schwarzenegger does not mention specific names, his endorsement of Manchin and his call to give‍ others⁤ a chance ‍is emblematic of a broader desire‌ for a more diverse ‌and inclusive political landscape. By prioritizing the exploration of new candidates, Schwarzenegger hopes to break away from the dominance of established figures and inject fresh ​perspectives into the presidential race.
