i also think about how lincoln was famously up at all hours and had a wildly unpredictable schedule and how the last photos of him look like a man who would not have survived another term even if booth had never been born
it’s neither here nor there as far as a trait to be emulated, but i always think about how joffre was unfailingly militant about his dining and sleep schedule, even during the great retreat, which would (and should!) have spooked the shit out of any normal commander

Trump’s public schedule showed that on most days, he worked (“worked”), like three hours a day. And this isn’t even a “Biden can’t work late at night” issue. It’s a Biden is pulling back on SCHEDULED EVENTS that start after 8pm, which is actually a good idea for most people.

Exactly, thank you. Also, does anyone actually think it's good to have the President working well past 8 PM every night? That seems like a bigger cognitive drain than being old.

Im 50 and couldn’t handle regular events after 8 pm!

Exactly this! I’m almost 50 and I work a full time job and by 8pm I at least want to be at home in comfortable pants most evenings.

Depends on how early he's starting his day. He didn't even say he was going to work less hours. Your circadian rhythm shifts earlier as you age. He may have just realized he needs to move to an earlier pattern!
