I think it was critical of the language style guide's language style outside of its criticisms of classics, but then somehow finds the real issue is the meaninglessness of words in the common-folk language of Trump compared to the eloquent (yet also straight-forward) language style Obama.

In other words, I'm confused too.

Oh if it went down that path I'm glad I didn't continue reading. Trump-style is not common-folk style, it's rambling-folk style.
