I found this question and answer particularly accurate and informative:
"Cillizza: Finish this sentence: "Donald Trump's speaking style reminds me of _____________." Now, explain.
Schiappa: "A petulant adolescent."
John McWhorter, a respected linguistics professor at Columbia, described Trump's speaking style as "oddly adolescent," and I concur. Trump's vocabulary is limited (one account even declared he speaks like an 8-year-old), his knowledge of the world is frighteningly narrow, he lies constantly to get his way, he is a thin-skinned bully who lashes out at any criticism, and his narcissism reminds me of an adolescent who has not yet discovered there are other people in the world who matter."
