First Lady Jill Biden believes Americans simply do not see how hard her husband, President Joe Biden, is working for them.
During an interview with MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Jill Biden insisted, “I think what people don’t see is how hard Joe works every single day.”
“That he gets up thinking what he can do for the American people,” she added.

On Thursday, Joe Biden had no public events on his schedule.
He has held two public events in the last 20 days.
While a lack of public events does not mean a president is not working, the limited amount of public appearances has not helped quell concerns about his age.
Axios reported last year, “Some White House officials say it’s difficult to schedule public or private events with the president in the morning, in the evening, or on weekends: The vast majority of Biden’s public events happen on weekdays, between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.”
Yet, the outlet also reported Jill Biden believes her husband is doing too much.
“President Biden’s reluctance to acknowledge his physical limitations at age 81 is causing some tension on his team, as senior aides and First Lady Jill Biden push him to rest more and be vigilant about his health going into 2024,” another report stated.
Despite concerns about his age, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has told reporters she “can’t even keep up with” the president.
