Justice would beat anyone but Manchin.
In addition to beating anyone not named Manchin, he'd also beat Manchin.

Why? If Manchin just scraped by in a good year for Democrats as the incumbent against a weak opponent, why would he win as a challenger in a year that likely won't be as good for Democrats?

The party of the people!
