...Wood, author of Snap: Making the Most of First Impressions, Body Language, and Charisma, added: 'Obama was extremely fatigued, resigned and not hopeful but very presidential.

'Trump was serious and showed indications he heard information that made him fearful.'

Trump and the first lady in waiting, Melania arrived at the White House on Thursday morning through a back entrance that opens up to the White House's South Lawn.

The private drive is inaccessible to media, and reporters were disallowed from covering the historic greeting between the incoming and outgoing first families....

You did good with that.

Trump’s handshake was perfect. It was on top, the Alfa position...he knows he has the ultimate power and he made sure Obama knew it.

This so called expert is full of crap. I was a Detective Sergeant in a career that lasted 30 years. Body language was not just a hobby of mine. ;>)

Obama appeared ‘... not hopeful.’

After 8 years of his hope and change, he is declared a failure at it. Maybe he should have spent less time at the golf range and more time in the Oval Office doing what he was hired to do.

Of course, the media will continue to give him accolades for a while, but I think history will not be so kind to him and his legacy.

Or maybe it was Trump’s turn to get the same message that I believe GW Bush, Dick Cheney, John Boehner, John McCain, Roger Ailes, and the eligibility judges (as their roles necessitated) were given in September of 2008: that the electronic run on the bank was financial terrorism and Obama’s Islamist masters would collapse the US economy if everybody didn’t do as they were told and let Obama usurp our White House.

In all seriousness there can be threats and dangers too horrific for the population to know. They would have to be exceptional.
He’d have shown anger if there were any personal threats made IMO.

I hope the Bogans aren’t still planning that galactic bypass here.

Possible. It was a “Lord give me strength” moment to deal with President Jackass.

I was a little taken back by what I saw on Trump’s face. Either he learned that Obama has some dirt on him or some other dirty trick to try and control Trump’s ability to carry out his agenda...Trump normally does not display that kind of a look on his face. I think he learned of something horrible that Obama has on him...that really bothers me...Obama appeared to be a little too cooperative and Trump was very titely lipped.

Maybe Trump crushed his scrawny paw.

Trump could smell the stench of weed coming from Obama

Trump was probably contemplating more important things that he had to do instead of being at an Obama-hosted press conference.

One thing that stood out to me was that Trump didn't even look Obama in the eye when they shook hands. It may not seem like a big deal, but during the campaign we heard from a lot of people who knew Trump and they all had the same description of Trump in his business dealings: He always shakes hands firmly, and looks right into the eye of the person whose hand he's shaking.

Well, take a look at that video clip again and notice how Trump makes a point of looking down while shaking Obama's hand.

Personally, I think Trump despises the guy.

If I could only get a game of strip poker going with a 'body language expert'...

To me, Trump looked bored silly and detested sitting next to the evil creep.

Just looked to me like Trump is eager to get started and not very pleased that he has to cool his heels for 2 whole months before he can get in there and start in.

I am guessing Trump asked him directly how could have ever pushed through the Iranian nuclear deal complete with hostage ransom...

and was flabbergasted with whatever answer given, hence it was telling to me that he said,

“I learned a lot... some issues were difficult-ish...”

I think that’s exactly it. Trump is trying to create an image of control. He realizes he’s won something tremendous and will have to fit the office.

That’s the wackiest conspiracy theory I’ve read this week.
