Body Language Expert Exposes the Truth Behind Melania’s ‘Face Turn’ at the Inauguration!
Before addressing the nation, Donald Trump took the oath of office for the second time as the 47th president of the United States. He arrived with his wife, Melania Trump, for a church service that marked the start of his inauguration. This event also officially ended the term of former President Joe Biden.
Trump declared, “The golden age of America begins right now,” and referred to himself as “a peacemaker and a unifier.”
In front of his supporters in Washington, DC, Trump signed several orders during the ceremony. As he exited, he tossed pens into the crowd.
Before stepping into the chamber to take his oath, Trump attempted to kiss his wife. Melania, who was wearing a custom-designed hat by Eric Javits, appeared to avoid the kiss, possibly because of her hat. This created an awkward moment where Trump ended up air-kissing her instead.
Body language expert Judi James analyzed the interaction and shared her insights with Paddy Power, explaining what Melania’s “avoidance” might signify.
According to James, Trump entered the inauguration event with a confident, “alpha” demeanor and a serious expression. He held Melania’s hand in what James described as a “romantic, hand-linking gesture” often seen at weddings.
When Trump leaned in to kiss Melania, it seemed like he was going for a lip-to-lip kiss. Melania leaned toward him, but she turned her face to signal a cheek kiss instead.
The couple ultimately exchanged a small “mwa” with their mouths.
Despite the awkwardness, James noted that Melania seemed pleased with the interaction. She smiled at Trump, showing gratitude and acknowledgment, which highlighted her role as a priority and a partner in the White House.
However, James also observed that the couple appeared slightly “out of sync” during the inauguration.
