The lack of superlatives, and this sentence in particular:

    Mr. Cohen, an attorney, received a monthly retainer, not from the campaign and having nothing to do with the campaign, from which he entered into, through reimbursement, a private contract between two parties, known as a non-disclosure agreement, or NDA.

Trump's never written a sentence that long or used anything remotely akin to that structure. It's not without precedent either [WARNING: fuckin' autoplay in the link].
