Hey there, it's JVL. On the secret show with Sarah Longwell today, we talked a lot about

Joe Manchin. We talked about the Republican debate. We talked about the economy and focus.

We talked about so many things. It was a long show. Here it is.

I want to talk about mansion just briefly because I had sort of been like reliably informed by whatever the rumor mill in Washington DC that Manchin because he's an ego maniac, would never accept being the vice president

on the no labels ticket because, and no labels has sort of announced that they're going to have a Republican at the top of the ticket.

And part of that is to fend off criticism that they are actively trying to hurt Joe Biden,

even though the Republican that they would have at the top of the ticket,

whether it's Hogan-Huntzman, whatever, would invariably still split the anti-Trump

vote and harm Joe Biden and help Donald Trump.

But in any event event I had been reliably

informed that he was going to go run as an independent or something in West

Virginia.

That's not happening. And not only that, but in the op-ed that he wrote, and in his announcement,

he left the door as wide open as one could leave the door about going to explore.

I'm going across this great land of ours to listen.

Just listen so hard.

Yeah. All the listening.

And so is the Liz Cheney, Joe Mansion ticket coming?

I don't know. But I got to tell you... As a no labels or as another independent?

I have no idea. Probably no labels because...

Because why couldn't we have R.FK and Cornell West and no labels and mansion.

And why couldn't we have a seven-way race?
