With Super Tuesday primaries underway, both President Biden and former President Trump are preparing for their expected rematch in the upcoming general election. Trump is poised to secure his party's nomination, while Biden plans to use Thursday's State of the Union address to launch his campaign and contrast his vision with Trump's, banking on voter concerns about Trump's legal troubles and controversial rhetoric.
