The first link discusses the changes in Ronald Reagan's speech, especially unscripted press conferences over a number of years. They compared the number of unique words used, number of repetitive words used etc.

I don't think you could do the same analysis on Trump's tweets because people can take more time to compose their tweets, choosing apt words for the context. Plus tweets are much shorter, so you'd have a smaller corpus with fewer unique words to begin with.

Still, definitely an interesting idea that you had there.
