Trump’s Speeches Are At A Middle-School Reading Level
In terms of their vocabulary, researchers found that the speeches for Trump — who once bragged he had “the best words“ — were, on average, at about a 7th-grade reading level. Cruz’s and Clinton’s speeches were at about an 8th-grade level, while Rubio’s speeches were just under a 10th-grade level and Sanders’ were just above it.
In terms of grammatical structure, nearly all of the candidates’ speeches hovered at around a 7th-grade level, with the exception of Trump, whose speeches are full of short, declarative sentences that placed them just under a 6th-grade level.
