I'm pretty sure that a man as accomplished as Trump could use big words in long sentences if he wanted. But he doesn't, maybe because it isn't important to him. How many people do you know that speak like they are writing a term paper? Only people that make their living by speaking and writing, like pundits, reporters, and politicians word-smith the hell out of everything they say. That's their product. They sell words. Trump is a developer/builder. His products are physical structures. To him words are just a means to an end. He doesn't worry about all the possible connotations and implications of what he says. People, like me, are tired of being talked at with condescension by academics, wonks, and statesmen, who talk a good game and know what everyone else should be doing but who never built anything in their lives.

But that is the job of a GOOD politician. To try and see how what they say and do affect the world around them, and tailor it so that the effects they have are positive, or at least change things in a way they desire. 
That is literally THEIR JOB.  And he doesn't worry about it.  That is why he will be terrible at it, if he gets this job.
