It Sure Looks Like Trump Is Lying About His Agreement With Kim Jong Un


Nonverbal communication is very powerful and as I say in my book SNAP, Making the Most of First Impressions Body Language and Charisma, first impressions can affect your entire feeling about a person or an event.

Last week I read the body language of trump and Kim at the summit that trump claims led to a denuclearization agreement. Even several of the eight journalist I worked with across the world on the story thought that Trump won a concession due to his confident smiling body language prior to off-camera Meeting.


Again in the handshake prior to the meeting and sitting at the conference table at beginning of the meeting that he was confident and cocky and winner.

The problem is he didn’t get a real concession in the agreement as you can read below. Many people I have talked to including since that event think he won.


When we are presented with mismatches between nonverbal communication and a verbal message our brain tends to rely on the nonverbal message to indicate the truth. Once we form a first impression it is very difficult for us to change it. But we do have the written agreement. Remember this is about nuclear war. It’s important that we all take the time to read the actual agreement.
