In reply to the discussion: Pelosi Warns 'Time is Running Short' While Punting on Biden Dropping Out: 'I Want Him to Do Whatever He Decides to Do" [View all]PatSeg
(49,754 posts)17. Whoa, the New York Times ran a very misleading headline
on this story: "Pelosi Hints That Biden Should Reconsider Re-Election Run".
I don't see anywhere that she was hinting Biden should reconsider. She is just encouraging him to make the decision, a decision that he has already made loudly, forcefully, and often. I'm not sure what she was saying, but she wasn't saying what was in the NYT's headline.
Edit to add: NOW the NYT's has changed the headline from "hints" to "suggests". It is STILL not what she said.

She should have said that the president is in this race to stay and he will win.
