Is Jeremy Hunt’s erratic, delusional leadership bid the stuff of strategic legend?

Is Jeremy Hunt entirely well?

I hate to be so indelicate and intrusive. But it’s increasingly difficult not to fret about the foreign secretary’s mental faculties.

He might be absolutely fine, and nothing more worrying for a potential prime minister than monumentally dim. It is even possible, as charitably acknowledged below, that he is a brilliant long-term strategist.
