JON KARL: So, J-Mart, let me start with you. Manchin.
JONATHAN MARTIN: Yes.
KARL: Is he going to run for president as a third-party No Labels candidate?
MARTIN: Well, first of all, I think that this almost guarantees that the GOP takes over the Senate next year. It leaves almost no margin for error for Democrats. They now have to win a series of tough states including Montana and Ohio. So I think that's the headline. Yeah, look. Manchin is still teasing the possibility of running third party, and I think the combination of that tease from Manchin that you just played, and Jill Stein, a name that will trigger Democrats out there- Jill Stein's entry as a Green Party candidate this week should really wake Joe Biden up to the multi-dimensional threat he could face next year. A four-way or five-way race that could be which--
KARL: Bobby Kennedy Jr…
MARTIN: Yes. Jill Stein…
KARL: Cornel West…
MARTIN: Cornel West, and potentially a No Labels type candidate. And, Jon, I think it's imperative, and a lot of Democrats do as well, that President Biden get people like Joe Manchin, like his buddy Mitt Romney who he's talking to a lot these days, by the way Manchin is, get them to the White House and say, you don't want Trump to be president again any more than I do. The only way to stop him is for me to win re-election. Maybe you don't like everything that I have done as president, but the goal has got to be to keep Trump out of the Oval Office. Stop the BS, guys. Let’s stop Trump.
