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...”
Real men PISS on people who analyze body positions for secret messages!
Manspread?? If you look closely at the chairs, the one Trump is seated in is narrower than Obama’s, probably deliberately. Note that the uprights on the arms of Trump’s chair are vertically straight, while those on Obama’s chair curve outward.
Interesting, I thought that our new president looked like a kid at his birthday party during the photo op. He couldn’t stop smiling ear-to-ear, LIKE ME!
I thought Trump looked a bit stunned too. I figured it’s a combination of getting a first taste at how overwhelming being in the WH can be, the impact of “holy cow, I’m really doing this” and a bit of feeling like he’s in the WH surrounded by lots and lots of people who hate him.
That Valerie Jerrett is a shape shifter lizard woman from space and they are really the ones in control of the earth.
A couple of thoughts:
1) Trump’s hands are in the steepled position (Finger Tips together). This is a sign of self confidence, and self-assuredness, and not what this ding-bat “body language expert” is trying to imply.
2) Trump’s hand during the hand-shake is on the top; the typical placement of one who holds the dominant position.
This is nothing more than spin from this so called expert. Trump looked natural as the alpha male; jug ears should’ve worn his mom jeans to this meeting.
Body language BS. Trump’s hands aren’t in an upside down prayer. They are in a rightside up Axe of Thor position, saying I’m gonna chop your flimsy sh!t down! Meantime Jugears’ hands are all twisted together in fearful uncertainty. As for the “man spread,” that is how newly made eunuchs hold their legs to relieve the pain. And so on with every single unscientific body language BS point she makes.
Probably the only thing she has right is the man spread concept. But that is Trump’s responsibility, and it is crudeness on Obama’s part.
Trump has, over a long career, dealt with the best and brightest. I am sure that when he got alone with Obama for the first time for 90 minutes, he was probably rattled a bit with what he saw. That was the new information he had just learned — and this man has been president for two terms.
Funny, my take on it was that Trump was angry or very disgusted but being polite, Obama was nervous and scared. Stuttering. I saw the one picture of Melania and Michelle and thought Melania was being polite, hands folded together so she didn’t slap Michelle silly and Michelle was crowing about herself.
I’m not a body language expert at all by the way.
I just saw the short video. That finger tapping on Trump’s part is a sure sign of boredom and impatience and what one does when forced to listen to nonsense.
What a bunch of Okie Dokie.
When I saw the picture, it looked to me that Obama’s chair is much wider than Trump’s giving him more room to manspread.
Barry’s fricking chair is a lot wider, thus enabling him to spread his legs more. It’s obvious.
This body language expert is ridiculous. She can assume any emotional “read” in that she wants.
Obama’s legs and feet pointed outward so far only indicate his outer gluteal and outer leg muscles are tighter than his inner leg muscles. He likely has low back and or hip issues, maybe even knee issues if ITB and outer ligaments are tight and pulling his knee cap outward. And if he does not already have those problems then sitting like he is in the picture repeatedly can easily lead to those problems. Patterns like this start in childhood. You can see when he walks he has uneven flow of leg movements. He needs to stretch more and lessen his repetitive golf playing. I know plenty of old folks who are so messed up muscle wise from playing their favorite sport like golf or tennis or even just walking repetitively many days a week, let alone whatever their job was through their life. It’s really not healthy for the muscles to do the same thing so often, they need variety and they need proper rest/recovery time.
Just as Trump rounds his shoulders.
Everybody from childhood has muscle/bone patterns which they can choose to grow into better balance or let get more out of balance over their life. It doesn’t have to mean anything about their personality or what they are trying to hide or express.
I’m sure Obama sits wide spread legged often, not just trying to show dominance over Trump.
This is stupid. Obama is scrawny in a big chair. Trump is a big man in a smaller chair. Trump’s legs are spread as far as they can go. Was he supposed to hang them over the chair arms?
Ridiculous article.
