“President Biden’s advisers are eager for the coming general-election fight and counting on voters to start paying more attention to Donald Trump, with the president himself even proposing and dashing off videos to ridicule the things his Republican rival says,” the New York Times reports.
“Mr. Trump is relishing the chance to contrast himself with Mr. Biden, as he did along the Texas-Mexico border last week, and trusting that Mr. Biden has the tougher job: convincing voters that their views of how the country is doing are wrong.”
“With the former president expected to rack up big wins on Super Tuesday and Mr. Biden preparing to deliver his State of the Union address on Thursday, this week is expected to clarify the coming choice for an American public that in many ways remains in disbelief that 2024 is headed toward a 2020 rematch.”
