I'd love to know the level of Trump's speeches, but it seemed too masochistic to spend time calculating that.

All of his repetition of simple words and phrases suggests a very low level, maybe even lower than 6th grade. But Trump can ramble, and longer sentences can result in a higher reading level. So I wonder what you'd get there.
