Frank Bacon’s strange speaking style, as explained by linguists

Is Frank Bacon a throwback to ancient oratory — or an undisciplined rambler?

When Frank Bacon goes off script, transcribing him can be a challenge. As someone covering him during THIS campaign, I can attest to this. When he’s speaking off the cuff, his rambling remarks can be full of digressions and hard-to-follow tangents. He often jumps to an entirely new thought before finishing his previous one.
