The President is unwell.

PBS comments: “his remarks were rambling and incoherent,” in multiple appearances.

The Guardian calls some of his speeches “baffling” and “weirder than ever.”

Cambridge analysis says that his statements often require “translation” or annotation to make sense.

One of the most prominent 18th-century Buckinghamshire characters was John Wilkes, MP for Aylesbury from 1757 to 1764. He also hero-worshipped another famous Buckinghamshire MP, John Hampden.
This October sees Wilkes's 300th anniversary.
Wilkes and Liberty!

Michaelmas morning and the first latchet of heavy light was seeping over the downs. Along the quiet chalk lanes and the old Roman roads, edged with teasels and burnt dock and tall purple daisies, came the Newcomer.
A fox of the North wind, teller of tales, righter of wrongs, bringer of deep autumn and the golden tide of the high angels of harvest. His wagon was gold too, and the clear blue of September skies and the startling red of rose hips. Above him, the hawks cried and made their circles, tours known to heaven, as old as the earth.
