Yes, a Trump-Biden rematch will take place
As long as Biden can stand on his feet and read, his puppet masters will continue to dangle him. Biden is an empty vessel that serves a purpose for those who want “a new beginning” for America.
Unless he is indicted for his illegal activities before November they will run him again. If Trump’s overwhelming legal problems or the Republican buffoons in Congress prevent him from capturing the presidency, the United States will not survive the damage done under the regime of the last three years.

I believe it’s inevitable
I believe it’s inevitable that we are looking at a Trump-Biden rematch. Biden is mentally and physically unfit for office and will be 82 years old at election time and no one would hire an 82-year-old as their CEO to run their company, but Biden thinks he’s good to go. Biden can barely walk or talk, but with the DNC, it’s all in on Biden. Trump isn’t a much better choice, but at least he’s not incoherent and can still give a speech and answer questions without cheat sheets and he can also hold a press conference. The problem with Trump is that he has enough baggage to fill Mar-a-Lago. Unfortunately, no one can compete with the Trump train and his supporters. Both parties can do much better, but it looks like we are stuck with both of them unless something happens at the Democratic convention, or Trump is actually convicted on a few of his 91 charges.

The match set in stone
As of today both Biden and Trump have confirmed their intention to run for the presidency. Their decisions set the stage for a potentially monumental rematch that will captivate the nation’s attention. The potential Trump-Biden rematch underscores the polarization within the electorate, with supporters deeply entrenched on both sides.
The electorate’s choice will undoubtedly hinge on a complex interplay of factors — ranging from policy agendas and leadership styles to public sentiment and societal values — making this rematch a pivotal moment in American political history.
