A video from Donald Trump’s most recent campaign rally has the
internet extremely concerned about Melania Trump’s well-being. In the
clip filmed on Saturday, February 18 at the president’s event in
Orlando, Florida, Melania is preparing to deliver the Lord’s Prayer for a
rambunctious crowd surrounding her.
Moments before she begins the prayer, Donald Trump
approaches the FLOTUS and touches her upper arm before walking behind her.
In that very moment, Melania takes a quick breath, rapidly turns her
head and looks down at the podium. When she looks back up, she re-focuses
and begins the prayer.
After the video
clip was posted on Twitter, one user specifically pointed out the
controversial moment when Donald approaches his wife, and people became
worried. Some people claimed Melania acted how “sexual abuse victims react to
their aggressors in public,” while others seemed unfazed by the couple’s
interaction.
In order to properly decipher the
meaning behind Melania’s reaction to Donald Trump, Elite Daily spoke with body
language experts who analyzed the clip for us.
Elite Daily spoke
with two body language experts who watched the video of Donald touching
Melania’s arm, and a few conclusions could be made based off their analyses.
Dr. Lillian Glass, a highly acclaimed Body Language and Communications Expert,
watched the video and concluded Melania’s demeanor on stage was caused by fear.
‘’She wasn’t referring to a fear of
Donald Trump, though — she was referring to a fear born from being the first
lady. Of Melania’s reaction on stage, Glass said,
I find her to be extremely nervous and
very uncomfortable in her role of First Lady. She’s extremely tense, her voice
shakes, it often cracks which shows a sign of muscle tension that has nothing
to do with Donald Trump.’’
