This is an example of "Word Salad" spoken by an Alzheimer's patient. "Word salad" is "schizophasia" -- meaning "broken or separated words". In the dementia patient, schizophasia is seen when that part of the brain which renders thought-to-speech is scrambled by the continuation of Alzheimer's decline. It is seen and heard as "a confused or unintelligible mixture of seemingly random words and phrases".
Think of that situation as you would if you were hearing several different, random, conversations at the same time and you attempt to pull out some sense to at least one of the conversation threads. The failing brain and consequential failing mental acuity state exacerbates schizophasia.
As the brain continues to fail, the patient will eventually only utter garbled utterances, sometimes whole words or sentences, and other times disconnected fragments of words.
Xiden is obviously suffering from middle-stage Alzheimer's Disease. That fact that he sometimes is able to actually speak coherently by reading from a teleprompter or cue-cards, means that he retains a portion of previous acuity.
For certain, he is being secretly treated with a combination of medications, including Donepezil (Aricept), Galantamine (Razadyne), and Rivastigmine (Exelon). It is highly likely he is also receiving Aducanumab (an anti-amyloid antibody intravenous (IV) infusion therapy); also likely is the daily application of various calming agents such as diazepam.
Xiden is inside a cocoon of "handlers" and "puppeteers" who hover over him at every minute when he is in public view.
This is very much the same as it was with Woodrow Wilson following his cerebral hemorrhage when his wife took charge, banned everyone except for a few trusted people, from speaking with him. She reviewed and signed all of this presidential documents.
All documents "signed" by Wilson during his illness are hidden away at the Wilson Presidential Papers facility, locked up until January of the year 2219 -- 300 years after his death; the documents which place this security on them exists at the Library and can be examined "if the Board of Regents in Full Session" authorizes that viewing. Handwriting experts need not apply.
