Pelosi did not give a definitive answer when asked by MSNBC if Biden has her support to be at the top of the Democratic ticket, but said “it’s up to the president to decide if he is going to run,” adding “we’re all encouraging him to make that decision, because time is running short.”
“Whatever he decides we go with,” Pelosi said when pressed again on whether she supports Biden continuing his campaign.
