"Let me be absolutely clear. Third-party groups such as No Labels and the Green Party are in effect front groups for Trump in 2024, and should be treated as such. …
As long as the anti-Trump vote is unified behind Biden, Trump cannot win, as Biden demonstrated in 2020.
But if a third-party candidate takes even a small part of the anti-Trump vote away from Biden, Trump is likely to be returned to the White House."

Could it be possible that No Labels acts inadvertently as spoiler for Biden in a state like Texas? No Labels could draw several % in Texas, flipping that state would make all the other swing states moot.

#NoLabels is a #GOP operation...

I agree, it's clear that #NoLabels is nothing but a Republican dirty trick. Its sole purpose is to put Trump in the White House and end our democracy forever.
I share your intuition that Manchin would take more votes from Trump than from Biden. However, the (very limited) available polling suggests that No Labels may give Trump a 4%-5% boost.
With Manchin and West on his side, I think Trump is on track to win in an electoral landslide.

Manchin thinks he's a genius, but if he runs for president as the #NoLabels candidate, he's likely to split the ticket with Republicans, not Dems. Their agenda is RW. Biden should still win, but #NoLabels is still concerning. Centrists: to hurt Ds or Rs?: Sen Manchin & his daughter Heather Manchin are pitching major pol donors on a nascent effort to promote centrist policies & candidates that's projected to cost >$100M🚨 -latest twist in the mystery over his pol future. https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/joe-manchin-and-daughter-pitch-100-million-project-to-boost-centrist-policies-155d19da?mod=djemwhatsnews
…The public announcement of a nominating process, which is expected this fall, is aimed at pushing back on some criticism — largely from Democrats, who have attacked the structure of the group, which shields the identities of its #donors.

I don't see that happening with Trump supporters claiming that the Democrats somehow magically changed literally every indicator that was taken in 2020 that Biden won the election. I just see them repeating the central claim, that the election was rigged, like some sort of #VirtueSignal, but never talking about the evidence.
And this is where I feel like negotiation isn't possible, as much as #NoLabels and the #Centrists insist there are "two sides"...

File this under the #oligarch / #plutocrat plan to get #Trump back into office.
Simply put, #NoLabels is an effort to split the #Biden vote which draws much as it's strength from #independents and #Centrists.
The financiers of No Labels are voting their checkbooks. They have little concern for American #democracy. They believe that they can control Trump. Worked well in #Germany 1932

The only thing we can really do about GOP schemes like #NoLabels that they're going to try to regain the White House and to keep their power in Congress is to get out the vote from the large amount of Americans that haven't been motivated enough to vote in post elections imo.
who, exactly, is paying for this? #NoLabels declines to reveal just who is funding its third party bid
“The plan all along was to burn down Biden, and they’re getting on the ballot in key states to do just that”

Unhappy w #AdrianFontes on this. People of #Arizona have worked hard to decrease big #DarkMoney in politics. #NoLabels is totally dark and unaccountable.

#NoLabels has obvious dominant #FossilFuels White Christian ideology. For ex., #Manchin & #SineMAGA insulting democracy for private hoarding of wealth.

An often neglected huge flaw of the Electoral College is that if no presidential candidate gets a majority of the EC votes, the House selects the president by unit vote - each state gets one vote. The party with the majority in the most state delegations would get the presidency. Republicans currently hold 26 of 50 states.
To deny a majority, any third party (e.g. #NoLabels) would have to win the popular vote in enough states.
We need national popular vote.
