Trump, speaking in an interview with NBC News’s Kristen Welker, said that his wife will hit the campaign trail “pretty soon” after not making appearances at his campaign events since he announced his 2024 candidacy in November 2022.

“When it’s appropriate, but pretty soon,” Trump said during a clip from the interview, which aired on NBC’s Today on Friday.

“She’s a private person, a great person, very confident person and she loves our country very much. She’ll be at the appropriate time she’ll be out there. Honestly, I like to keep her away from it — it’s so nasty and so mean,” he continued

The former president said that Melania Trump has been with his youngest son, Baron, in the meantime.

Unlike in previous presidential campaigns, Trump’s family has not been as present on the campaign trail at events and rallies. Trump’s sons Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. have promoted their father’s 2024 presidential campaign, but Ivanka Trump decided against campaigning for her father this time around.

“I love my father very much. This time around, I am choosing to prioritize my young children and the private life we are creating as a family. I do not plan to be involved in politics. While I will always love and support my father, going forward I will do so outside the political arena,” Ivanka Trump said shortly after her father announced his 2024 presidential bid.

“Yes. Soon? Yeah, pretty soon. When it’s appropriate, but pretty soon,” he said. “She’s a private person, a great person, a very confident person and she loves our country very much.”

“And honestly, I like to keep her away from it. It’s so nasty and so mean,” he added.

The interview, Welker’s first as moderator of “Meet the Press,” will air Sunday on NBC affiliates across the country. NBC News has also extended an invitation to President Joe Biden to sit down with Welker for an interview.
