Sundowners? Is this the real reason they've been hidin' Biden before the debate?

BLUF
[American Thinker] Limbaugh, however, took it farther and theorized that Biden experiences a phenomenon known as "sundowning." This "refers to a state of confusion occurring in the late afternoon and spanning into the night," explains the Mayo Clinic, and "may affect people with dementia[.]"

The bottom line is that Biden and evenings just don't mix well anymore. But here's the problem: the debate is in the evening — somewhat late, 8 P.M. — at the debate site: Nashville, Tennessee.

So how can Biden rise to this nocturnal occasion? Here's one possibility:

Alter the candidate's sleep schedule so that he retires and wakes up late, really late, so he can peak for an 8 P.M. event. At least a few days would be necessary to acclimate to this change — oh, perhaps like the four days Biden was kept secluded before tonight's debate.

#1 I have observed this "phenomenon" in relatives in their 80's and 90's, many of whom had suffered strokes. Communication and lucid thought are difficult in the afternoon. Mid-morning is the best time for them, most retire for the evening by 7:00 or 8:00 pm.

#2 Joey was starting to lose it (more than normal) as the debate progressed last night. I even got a kick out of him checking his watch.

#3 I thought he was checking to see when to push his hidden Med-Pump button, Clem. The remote controls maybe didn't work so well last time.

#4 I'd like to hear him out when the full moon happens.

#5 ...And that 0300 phone call telling him that something has just gone pear-shaped could be kinda interesting.

#6 I even got a kick out of him checking his watch.

Apparently he needed to know the time because at midnight his undecideds turn into Trumpkins.
