1/ THREAD: Trump telling us that his Chief of Staff, Mark Meadows, "has that, pretty much under control." (that being previous monies being given to a lab in China).

2/ Whenever exaggerated facial movements are used during an answer or statement, this is a form of over-acting and deception.

3/ If a person is not a skilled actor (i.e., and good at hitting the exact emotional mark), rather than underact, the human psyche tends to over-act. What we see here on Trump's face is a #BodyLanguage manifestation of this phenomenon.

1/ THREAD: Trump looks dramatically away from @weija as she presses him on his delayed response to the #Coronavirus.

2/ This nonverbal dynamic not only conveys disrespect to #WeijiaJiang, but it's also a method the psyche uses to down-regulate temper. Trump was about to lose any remaining impulse control.

1/ THREAD: As he says, "Nice and easy, nice and easy, just relax" to @weija, Trump lowers and forward-tilts his head while simultaneously lowering his eyebrows.

2/ At the same time, his eyebrows are pulled closer together. His nostrils flare, his mid-face tightens, and his jaw juts forward (an adrenaline surge).

3/ This cluster of nonverbals is indicative of a moderate-to-high level of anger — approaching rage. This expression is menacing — and should set off the sirens in your amygdala.

1/ THREAD: When Trump points, he uses his index finger (forefinger). This is an alienating nonverbal habit. Even individuals who like him find this gesture offensive (including those watching remotely). This is true in every culture.

2/ Note also how he often brings his hand up from a high position down to a lower position. This simulates a chopping motion and makes it's user feel more powerful. This #BodyLanguage is rapport destroying and signals a narcissistic personality.
