According to a report by Axios, Team Biden is secretly hoping for a Trump rematch in the 2024 presidential election. They believe that Trump becoming the presumptive Republican nominee would give a “much-needed jolt of energy” to voters and donors who don’t want to see him back in the White House. However, not all Democrats are on board with this strategy.
Report: Team Biden Wants a Trump Rematch, but Some Democrats Worry It Will Backfire https://t.co/ohAVnd6WYQ

The report highlights a few reasons why some Democrat strategists are worried. First, recent polls show that Republican voters are much more enthusiastic about Trump than Democrat voters are about Biden. This lack of enthusiasm could pose a challenge for Biden in the election. Second, several polls have shown Biden and Trump in a close race, indicating that Biden may face an uphill battle for re-election. Lastly, history has shown that top Democrat strategists have been wrong about Trump before. In 2012, Obama’s campaign manager hoped that Hillary Clinton would run against Trump, but Trump ended up winning.
Team Biden is banking on a Trump rematch to energize their base and secure a victory in 2024. However, their strategy may not be as foolproof as they think. With Republican voters showing overwhelming support for Trump and polls indicating a tight race, Biden will need more than just a jolt of energy to secure re-election.
