I mean, I definitely think that the NYT editorial team wants nothing more than a 2nd Trump presidency. They don't need to have good ideas about how to handle Biden's performance, they just need it to be a crisis for the Dems, and then their guy wins.

100% true! But also this is driving the narrative nationally, so we have NPR and other outlets speculating about his departure. There are reporters asking Biden if he's fit to be president during press conferences, this is the result of editorial choices.
