On ABC's "This Week" on Sunday, West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin again declined to speculate about backing President Joe Biden in 2024 and said he was hopeful fellow Democratic Sen. Kyrsten Sinema will come on board with a deficit reduction, climate and energy bill he negotiated.
A key vote will be Arizona's Sinema, who has previously opposed closing the so-called carried interest tax loophole. Manchin and Schumer's bill limits but doesn't remove that exception. Karl pressed Manchin on his assessment that the Senate legislation would help lower inflation, noting that a budget model from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania showed the bill would initially -- slightly -- add to inflation.
"Everybody's worried about the election. That's the problem. It's the 2022 election, 2024 election. I'm not getting involved in that," Manchin said, adding, "I'm not getting into the 2022 or 2024. Whoever is the president, that's my president. Joe Biden is my president right now.""I'm not getting into the 2024 election," Manchin responded.
