President Trump’s public speeches have grown more profane, more absolutist, and longer than in 2016, according to a New York Times review.
The analysis examined his rally and public remarks as he approaches age 80, finding sharper language and looser structure.
Reviewers also noted a decline in coherence compared with his 2016 campaign speeches, with arguments often drifting off topic.
The findings add to ongoing questions about age and communication style for political leaders in both parties.
Supporters say the changes reflect a deliberate strategy to connect with audiences rather than any cognitive decline.
The review focused on word choice, speech length, and logical flow across dozens of public appearances.
It did not offer a medical assessment and relied on public remarks rather than clinical evaluation.
