Who doesn’t love a rematch? Well, Joe Biden apparently.
The elderly President of the United States of America opted against another bruising contest with Donald Trump and denied voters the choice between two white men over the age of 75 in the upcoming Presidential Election. Aren’t they lucky?
The golden rule of Hollywood films is that sequels are rarely better than the originals – so it’s perhaps a good thing that Biden has decided to put his feet up instead. A good kip might be nice.
Trump is now the old boy in the fight with Democrat candidate Kamala Harris, the incumbent Vice President, who earned Biden’s seal of approval via an incredibly-long statement on Twitter, sorry Elon I mean X.

Donald Trump shocked the world when he became President in 2016 and, it’s fair to say, his four years in office divided the country.
After time on the sidelines, he decided to run for the Republican nomination in 2024, despite being involved in a civil fraud trial in New York in which he was subsequently found guilty. Could that have a bearing on proceedings?
This didn’t prevent him from sweeping aside fellow potential nominees, with a recent assassination attempt – in which he was hit by a bullet in the ear – not stopping him from attending the Republican Party’s National Convention to be rubber-stamped as their candidate.
Trump was set to face Joe Biden, but the incumbent President opted to stand down amid concerns about his age and health after a series of high-profile gaffes.
The current Vice President, Kamala Harris, steps up to the plate as the Democrat’s nominee and is bidding to become the first woman to take the hotseat in the Oval Office. Can she succeed where Hillary Clinton failed?
The election is a day away and our traders still think it is too close to call, although the former Apprentice host has the edge as the Electoral College could prove crucial.
