Presidential Debates. Harris and Trump's Body Language
Acritical that appeared in a university paper
A confident Kamala
With Harris appearing in a few other national debates, America was curious what version of the
vice president would be on display. Harris came out strong, walking across the stage to shake
Trump’s hand at his own podium, a move that body language expert Patti Wood feels was
absolutely premeditated.
“Visually, it made her look more powerful,” said Wood.
Viewers form their initial thoughts on who won within the first seconds of a debate and Harris’s
smooth movement was goal-oriented, making her seem confident, explained Wood. Throughout
the night, Harris did not hold back her reaction to Trump’s claims, taking full advantage of the
split screen. Her wide-eyed looks of shock, contemplative hand gestures and head shakes
brought the audience’s attention onto her, even while Trump was speaking. Harris also kept up
the practice of staring directly into the camera when speaking, a favorite technique of Biden’s.
“The actual messaging makes us feel like she’s honest, she can make eye contact,” continued
Wood.
This paired nicely with her tendency to speak directly to the American people, and contrasted
with Trump’s personal exchanges with the moderators.
Of the debate as a whole Wood summarized, “this debate was a war of facial expressions, and
she won.

What Does Someone's Laugh Say About Them. Why Trump Hate Harris's Laugh, Gender Differences In Laughter

What does
someone's laugh tell us about them?
Laughter is
a form of nonverbal communication. It combines the different body language
associated with laughter, such as smiles, open mouths, teeth showing, head
back, body bent back, and paralanguage that includes the vocalizations of
laughter. Research shows that the more confident and uninhibited you are, the
more spontaneous and powerful your laugh is.
Here are my
more specific findings on how your laugh reflects your DISC personality. (See
below this for my research background.)
C - The
Corrector/Analyzer/Get it Right personality - Their laugh tends to be more
subdued, may come a beat late, and is more likely to be brief, quiet, and even
silent. They are more likely to laugh with their mouth shut or with only a
small opening and may even laugh with their mouth closed and their lips going
down at the corner. But their eyes sparkle if you are witty.
I -
Influencers/Get Appreciated personality - Their laugh comes quickly, sometimes
even before the funny incident is complete. They are likelier to smile with
their whole face, mouth opening wide, and upper teeth showing. The smile goes
up at the corners, the cheeks go up, and the eyes crinkle with laugh lines at
the corners. They laugh the loudest and longest. They are the least inhibited
by their laughter and may move the most parts of their body to laugh, and they
may laugh the loudest. Their laughs tend to be the most infectious, and they
love getting other people to join in the laughter. They are not inhibited, so
they are not afraid to be the first to laugh or the only person laughing.
D -
Drivers/Get it Done personality. When they do laugh, it comes on immediately.
It's loud, then it is gone. When I do smile, it is larger than most people.
They are confident and assertive laughers. But they will not laugh when it's
not that funny to them.
S -
Sociable/Get Along personality. It may come on more slowly when they laugh, but
it is small, steady, and stable. They are the most likely to laugh politely to
ease tension. Their smile and my mouth go up at the corners, but not too far.
I have
researched nonverbal behavior and DISC personality—several of my projects were
part of my positions as a National Spokesperson for different companies. For
example, when I was the national spokesperson for Benadryl, they sponsored my
research on how the way you sneeze reflects your DISC personality. When I was
the National Spokesperson for The Natural Dentist tooth products, they
sponsored my research on how smiles reflect your DISC Personality.
-- Are there
differences in how laughter from women and men is perceived?
In general,
women are more likely to be "Social" laughers. They use their laugh
to ease tensions and smooth social interactions. In stress or danger, the range
of responses is Freeze, Flight, Fall, Faint, or Friend/Fawn. Women and less
powerful/high-placed individuals are more likely to use the Friend/Fawn stress
response to stress and danger and give a small laugh and or tight smile. For
example, a man may be in a group of people and tell a dirty joke about a woman.
The women in the group may feel hurt or mad, but they may smile and laugh
socially under stress, especially when they have a less powerful position in
the group hierarchy.
Malignant
Narcissists often have a strange artificial laugh that comes a beat or two late
and does not fully affect the face. This means that typically, the facial
muscles go up and are buoyant when someone laughs, and the eyes light up and
look warm to the viewer. But a Malignant Narcissist may fake laugh to look
social ale or may give what I call a mean laugh where the face expression looks
odd and doesn't light up the eyes, and the mouth may go into a sneer with one
side up and one side down. Their brains are wired differently. The pleasure
centers may light up when causing other pain or discomfort.
Trump does
not have a full, open laugh. It's small and has a sort of exultation of breath.
He tends to have a sneer that lingers on his face after he laughs or says
something he thinks is funny.
Harris can
give full, loud, open laughter that affects her full face and body. It is
sometimes a very uninhibited and spontaneous laugh that shows full engagement
and enjoyment. Some people look at and hear that laughter and think it's not
CORRECT or Presidential. And if someone follows and or believes in conservative/outdated
gender norms, it would break the "rule" that women should be more
quiet and submissive. A big laugh under those old rules would indicate that she
is powerful and high on the social hierarchy.
What does it
mean if someone doesn't seem to ever laugh, as is seemingly the case with
Donald Trump?
People laugh
when they get the joke, enjoy the other person or people when they are joyful, intelligent,
and clever, and when they are up to date on the latest cultural idioms, so they
understand the callbacks. If you don't get the joke and don't laugh too, be
sociable and need to be the most powerful person in the room and think laughing
at other people's humor puts you in a one-down position you don't laugh. I am
NOT saying any of these things are true of Trump. I am saying this is what the
research on laughter shows as motivations.
The research on smiling and laughing shows both physical and psychological benefits. Laughter can also bond you with others and increase the pleasure of social interaction. I love seeing how someone lifts with "UP" body language when they laugh fully.

Kamala Harris ‘showed off power’ in 1st speech since Biden dropped out with subtle body language difference, by expert Patti Wood
Body Language to look for in the Presidential Debates Between Biden and Trump by Patti Wood.
Tonight, during the debates, people should notice how Biden and Trump exhibit the Four First Impression factors: credibility, likeability, attractiveness, and power. Biden typically uses smiles and crinkles at the corner, smiling eyes to win on likability, and Trump uses anger cues such as a glare, a loud, forceful voice, and a scowl to win on power. Audiences look for strong nonverbal power cues in debates and typically decide who they think “won” the debate before the candidates even begin speaking based on the four first impression factors. I discuss this in my book, “SNAP! Making the Most of First Impressions Body Language and Charisma.”
Zendaya and Tom Holland's Body Language Says Good Things, By Body Language Expert Patti Wood
Here is the link to the article.
As a whole, this body language is reminiscent of teenagers,
says Wood. She cites the softness of the couple's facial expressions and
demeanors "that has an innocence about it."
Zendaya's smile, in particular, is one that Wood sometimes
sees in new mothers. "It's a joy of beginnings, of a certain kind of
love," she explains. And it makes sense—after all, Tom is holding her in a
very vulnerable way with her whole back up against him and their faces smushed
together. The way their bodies are pressed against each other "typically
indicates connection and trust," Wood says. "She feels really
safe."
And if you look at Tom's face, "there's a certain kind
of wonder in his eyes," Wood explains of his soft gaze. It's almost as if
his facial expression says: "I can't believe this is happening," as
if he still can't believe how lucky he is to be with Zendaya.
The way they hold hands shows they support each other.

In this February 2022 pic, Zendaya and Tom were spotted
leaving their hotel together. Here, Tom is "taking the lead in front of
her to protect from the paparazzi," says Wood. He's in a "guarding
position," purposefully walking in front of his girlfriend to make sure
she stays safe, Wood explains.
Despite the distance between their bodies, the couple's
handhold is secure, meaning Tom's not pulling Zendaya, and the grip is not
forced. You can tell because Zendaya isn't off-balance, even though she's
walking in heels—her whole body is "not leaning forward having to catch up
with him," Wood says. Instead, this handhold is one of support and
connection.
Wood also likes that while Zendaya is standing in her own
strength and power—due to how she's standing up straight and strutting in her
heels—she's still looking towards Tom. "That tells me she trusts
him," Wood says. "She doesn't have to be the center of attention for
the cameras in front of them."
Zendaya likes to share all types of moments with Tom.

Here's Tomdaya looking absolutely adorable—if not completely
absorbed—by a match at the BNP Paribas Open. While it looks like this pic was
taken at a rather tense moment, Zendaya still leans into Tom and mirrors his
facial expressions, as if saying, "I want to share this with you, I want
to experience with you," Wood explains.
Their playful and joyful energy shows they feel safe with
each other.

In this pic, Zendaya is sporting what Wood calls a
"Julia Roberts smile," where she's grinning with her full mouth open,
showing her teeth, and dropping her jaw. She's also projecting the smile with
her eyes as she looks in Tom's direction, which signifies that she wants to
share this moment of joy with him, says Wood.
For Tom's part, he's buoyant. His smile is significant
because it shows his upper teeth and his mouth is open, a type of smile men
typically reserve for true happiness, according to Wood. "When you look at
his smile, you can tell it's a surprised, happy, joyful smile," she says.
These two clearly have a lot of fun together, but that fun
can even be characterized as child-like. Not only do they look giddy here, but
this photo was also taken in a spontaneous type of moment "that kids can
go into very easily," Wood adds. (They're not posing for the pic—Zendaya
looks like she's trying to suppress a laugh with her fist while Tom is reaching
toward the person taking the photo.)
"When you can be vulnerable enough to experience
playfulness and joyfulness like a kid...you feel safe with your partner,"
Wood says. All together now: Awwwww.
