So I got curious and looked up what campaign events he has coming up.

Literally none.

When dementia really starts to take hold, the patient has good days and bad days. You can't predict if he will be lucid on a particular day at a specific time. So, you have to take advantage of the lucid moments on short notice, and keep them short.

A telling sign: if he only makes appearances in mid-day. If he disappears in the late day or evening, it's because the middle stages of dementia often cause "sundown syndrome":

If Biden is at this point, I don't know how he is going to pull off a debate. Maybe they'll try to shift his circadian rhythm to later in the day, keeping him awake in a brightly lit room. Otherwise, he is likely to become irritable and it won't take much for Trump to set him off into a rant.

Maybe he and the Dems know something we don’t?

Like what?

Like some reason they don’t need to campaign.
