Much has changed since 2020, and we haven’t had a presidential rematch in 130 years. A Trump-Biden sequel would truly be unprecedented.

But at the lizard-brain level, they have all seen him sitting at the big desk in the Oval. They know what he looks like as president.

As Last points out, this hasn’t happened since 1892, when former presidentfaced incumbent president Benjamin Harrison, who had narrowly defeated Cleveland four years earlier. Then as now, the rematches came in an extended period of closely contested presidential elections. Then as now, the electorate knew both candidates very well.
