Now Biden and his team want to clarify the choice voters will face, believing that the stakes of the election, and Trump’s solidifying grip on the GOP, will appeal to voters in the center. Biden sees a rematch with Trump as both his easiest path to reelection and a validation of his decision, at 81, to seek another four-year term.
