Adding to the sense of repetition, Taylor Swift is set to release a new album, marking the first time in four years since she dropped Folklore and Evermore just five months apart in 2020.
Furthermore, the upcoming presidential election 2024 in the United States is reminiscent of the 2020 election, as mandated by the US Constitution to be held every four years, coinciding with leap years. Once again, the two main contenders appear to be Joe Biden and Donald Trump, setting the stage for a familiar showdown.
The years 2020 and 2024 share several notable similarities, contributing to a sense of déjà vu for many. Both years have been leap years, adding an extra day to February.
