The Super Tuesday rout and Nikki Haley's subsequent suspended campaign makes it official: We are about to relive the apocalyptic rematch no one wants.
Gird your loins, America, for Trump v. Biden. Again.
Hint to the left-leaning media, which refuses to see what's in front of its face: Donald Trump is on track to win – and win bigly.
Exhibit A comes courtesy of President Biden himself, announcing a new economic task force Wednesday morning.
Upon finishing, he mumbled incoherently to himself about the fusillade of questions coming from the White House press corps.
He took the microphone and, crashing two distinct sentences into each other, said, 'I-better-not-start-the-questions-I'll-get-in-trouble.'
Staring vacantly at a fixed spot in the distance and breathing heavily, Biden put the microphone down and looked off, mouth agape, for a full fifteen seconds.

Our 81-year-old Commander-in-Chief — who loyalists repeatedly claim is full of vim and vigor behind the scenes, so agile and energetic and intellectually nimble that 20-something staffers struggle to keep up — can otherwise only display confusion, exhaustion, physical limitation and irrefutable cognitive decline to us.
You know, the people meant to vote for him, in full confidence, despite the calls coming from inside the house.
Here's David Axelrod, the man who got Obama elected twice, to The New Yorker this week: 'I felt like Biden had the ability to say, "I've run my race, and I've faithfully fulfilled my duties to the nation"… he is not a particularly competent performer in front of cameras now. That's mostly how people interact with the President. Bill Clinton said, "Strong and wrong generally beats weak and right".'
Note that Barack and Michelle Obama have been very quiet about a second Biden term — despite, per the left, the unquestionable threat to democracy that is Donald Trump.
James Carville, the mastermind behind Bill Clinton, to MSNBC last November on Biden's age: 'How could any sane person say that this is not an issue?'
Bill Maher has called the octogenarian president 'Ruth Bader Biden' for his refusal to step aside and the consequences sure to follow.
Yet the American people are routinely told that we are not seeing what we are seeing — and even so, it shouldn't matter, because Joe Biden is the only thing standing between dictatorship and democracy.
The ever-craven Hillary Clinton herself on Super Tuesday: 'You know what? Joe Biden is old. Let's go ahead and accept reality' — but vote for him anyway!
Do these people hear themselves?
An American president who demonstrably cannot do the job — who is propped up behind the scenes by people we did not vote for and who are clearly running foreign and domestic policy. Biden – a mere slurring, whispering, thousand-yard-stare avatar for their agenda – is, we are to believe, the lone defender of said democracy.
Truly, it's Kafakaesque, another example of the extreme superciliousness and smugness of the left, who so believe in their intellectual superiority that all they need to do is bully and insult the majority of voters who think Joe Biden is too old to run.
To be clear: Trump, at 78, is only three years younger than Biden. But when you compare the way each of them presents to the public, it's no contest.
An ABC News/Ipsos poll released in February found that 86 percent of Americans believe Biden is too old to serve another term.
Of course.

Trump conveys energy. Whatever his detractors — and I am one —despise in him, Trump exudes passion, fury, determination. He is animated when speaking. He puts himself in front of crowds. He knows what keeps voters up at night and speaks to them plainly, without condescension.
Trump gives interviews in which he speaks extemporaneously, no handheld notecards needed. Imagine that.
Biden, for the second year in a row, has refused a softball interview during the Super Bowl. He is largely kept away from the media.
When he does speak, he relies on those small cue cards, or Dr. Jill — our own Lady Macbeth — to lead him off stage left. He seems ever in need of a nap and some Matlock reruns.
Who thinks Biden is going to be permitted to debate Donald Trump?
It's pick-your-poison time in America yet again. But just as in 2016 — with Hillary and her 'basket of deplorables', her refusal to campaign in the Midwest — Democrats believe Trump is so vile, so unthinkable, that Biden will win as a matter of moral righteousness.
Ha! As if such a concept exists in politics.
People look at Joe Biden and see weakness: Intellectually, physically, politically.
Recall that disastrous press conference just a few weeks ago, after the DOJ report adjudged him an 'elderly man with a poor memory' who couldn't recall, within a span of several years, when his beloved son Beau died.
In that presser, a dazed and confused Biden declared that he had eased humanitarian suffering in Gaza by personally calling the president of Mexico.
In a further humiliation, Alexei Navalny's widow Yulia and Ukraine's first lady Olena Zelenska have refused the White House's invitation to attend Biden's State of the Union address on Thursday.
Wonder how Biden's cheerleaders on the left will spin that.
Which brings us to the border and the left's complete minimization of that ongoing crisis.
Here was that self-regarding genius Rachel Maddow on Tuesday night, leading her MSNBC colleagues Joy Reid and former Biden press secretary Jen Psaki in laughing at concerned voters.
Here was that self-regarding genius Rachel Maddow on Tuesday night, leading her MSNBC colleagues Joy Reid and former Biden press secretary Jen Psaki in laughing at concerned voters. (Pictured: Eagle Pass, Texas, last September).
'I mean, I live in Virginia,' Psaki said. 'Immigration was the number one issue?'
Cue laughter from Reid.
'Well,' a smirking Maddow said, 'Virginia does have a border with West Virginia — a very contested area.'
There's more than a little elitism in that dig. West Virginia is one of the most poverty-stricken states in the country. The Maddow subtext: Uneducated. Hillbilly heroin addicts. Only themselves to blame. MAGA.
Poor, white, rural Americans know that they're being sneered at by coastal elites in fancy TV studios. They know that when Biden suddenly pivots to grocery store prices and shrinkflation, as he has this week, it's only because poll numbers have forced his hand.
The American electorate sees a world on fire and wonders how an elderly man with a poor memory can project necessary strength and power.
Trump is speaking directly to these people, and he doesn't make them feel stupid. He doesn't dismiss their concerns as unimportant. He takes every hit that comes his way and emerges stronger.
The unanimous Supreme Court ruling this week that keeps him on the ballot is just another sonic boom fueling his candidacy.
But Joe Biden, the morning after Super Tuesday, can't take questions because he's afraid he'll get in trouble.
