The Biden administration knows that a Trump-Biden rematch could be on the horizon and the competition will be fierce. President Biden’s Chief of Staff Ron Klain says the White House shouldn’t underestimate Trump if he decides to run in 2024.
According to The Hill:
“I wouldn’t want to estimate or underestimate Donald Trump as an opponent if he chooses to run,” Klain told Axios’s Mike Allen in an interview on “Axios on HBO” that aired Sunday.
“My experience, Mike, is that incumbent presidents are judged on their record,” he added. “President Trump had a bad record in 2020. Joe Biden is hopefully assembling a powerful record to run on if he runs for reelection in 2024.”

Asked during a news conference in March whether he plans to seek another term in the White House, Biden said that he expects to do so.
“That’s my expectation,” he said. “I’m a great respecter of fate. I’ve never been able to plan four-and-a-half, three-and-a-half years ahead for certain.”
Trump has strongly hinted that he will launch a third presidential campaign but has stopped short of confirming any concrete details. However, recently Trump gave his strongest indication yet that his supporters will be “very, very happy” with his future answer.
