What does Donald Trumps Body Language say about him?
Euronews ^ | 8/25/16 | Euronews

Posted on 11/10/2016 11:52:22 AM PST by Dallas59



"Several people have tried to research Trump’s micro-expressions, looking for discrepancies between his words and body language but they haven’t been able to find any – meaning Trump really believes what he’s saying. Last year one expert told UK newspaper The Independent: “Out of the seven channels of communication that I observed, he was consistent in all – therefore I conclude he was making statements that appeared to be consistent with his belief system.”

That’s funny, because I love to watch peoples body language and have gotten the same impression off of Trump.

What you see, is what you get.

That he works on the binary system. His index finger is either a one or his index and thumb are a zero.

Exactly right.

What did they say about Hillary’s body language?

I’m guessing their heads exploded due to the obvious conflict.

Funny, but I never bother to try to understand a politicians body language because I always saw BS when I looked at them. I did notice Trump putting his index and thumb together and I always took that as he was meaning to be precise....I took him to be speaking the truth or what he knew to be the truth. From that I believed what he was saying. He is honesty the first politician I ever saw do that.

Honesty is such a rare thing today that they were probably shocked.

I saw a documentary on Hitler and noticed that his manner of speaking an gesturing was mirrored by Hillary, especially at the end of her campaign. Start slow and soft to sound sedate and reasonable and build to a strident shrillness with increasing hand and arm gesture....

What folks fail to understand is that Trump is our first 4D POTUS.

He didn’t enter the race until after he’d won.

Occam’s Razor. Nothing else can explain the unshakable confidence he’s consistently demonstrated.

A lot of politicians spend so much of their time in interviews and debates masking their expressions, usually with a smile”, Prof. Beattie explains. “That makes us uncomfortable because we know there is a degree of hiding going on…

Hillary's fake smile always made me laugh.

From the Atlantic about Mr. Trump: "[T]he press takes him literally, but not seriously; his supporters take him seriously, but not literally."

You and me both, especially that fake smile during the debates. It was so patronizing and condescending.

I watched Trumps “deplorables” entrance about 20 times. That’s an entrance. He doesn’t strut out with his chin jutting out. He doesn’t look above the crowd. He lets the crowd have their time to clap. Then he whipped out his notes, like a boss, and waited for the clapping to stop.

Obama juts his chin out a-la Il Duce, looks above the crowd and down on them. And commands people to stop and pay attention to HIM. Big difference.

Geeeez...why else would a billionaire with a beautiful wife and family, otherwise volunteer to drag himself through so much mud slinging and sh*t?

It is easy to tell that Trump loves this country, and that he feels he owes it for some much. Too bad a lot of other millionaires (Hollywood crybabies) and billionaires (like Soros) prefer to be whiney bottom sucking dirt bags. Soros especially, what a piece of sh*t this guy is....can’t he do the world a favor and meet his maker? There is a special place waiting in hell for this SOB.

Donald is authentic. We all respond to that.

I take him literally.
