analyses his speech level (it's 4th grade level), sentence structure, what words he uses and so on.

i would also like to point out that in the example used (Kimmel asks "is it wrong to discriminate on religion"😉 he spent 1 minute and 220 words to not even coming close to an answer to that particular question ...[text shortened]... e who do not support him know this. people who support him don't seem to care or don't realize.
Fourth grade level speech and writing are used by most newspapers, radio and TV news, anyone trying to communicate with the most people. If they are trying to impress people they speak of write at a higher level, or like you do the best they can to get to 2nd grade.

The NYTimes and Wall Street Journal are both written at 4th grade level.

Nothing wrong with reading easy to understand material. A lot better than pretending you're better than that, but can't keep up.
