Biden 'pretty much' ready to announce re-election, Jill Biden says

First lady Jill Biden told The Associated Press on Friday that her husband, President Biden, is "pretty much" ready to announce his re-election campaign.

The first lady made the comments during her multi-day visit to Africa. 

"He says he’s not done," the first lady told the AP while visiting Nairobi. "He’s not finished what he’s started. And that’s what’s important."

"How many times does he have to say it for you to believe it?" she joked.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said earlier this month that Biden intends to run for re-election in 2024.
