“‘I don’t think that democracy as we know it would withstand another Trump administration.’”
That’s Sen. Joe Manchin, who said he sees danger on the horizon if Donald Trump wins another term as president, but he wouldn’t explicitly endorse fellow Democrat Joe Biden during a televised interview on Thursday.
Manchin’s comments about Trump, on MSNBC, came as the former president is facing indictments by prosecutors including in Washington, New York and Florida. Special counsel Jack Smith has examined Trump’s actions leading up to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, and the former president has been charged with conspiracy to defraud the U.S., among other charges.
