The ‘hidden meaning’ behind Barron Trump’s unique hand gesture

Donald Trump was sworn in as president for the second time, and during his inauguration speech, among the rest, he praised his son, Barron Trump.

During Donald Trump’s inauguration, social media quickly gained momentum over the interaction in which the young Trump shook hands with former President Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

The public praised for greeting his father’s opponents, with many agreeing that the president’s son is a well-mannered young man.

“I was very impressed by that gesture and from someone so young. To go across the aisle and shake their hands was a very classy and mature thing to do. Good for Barron,” one person wrote.

“Such a good young man… That gesture just tells you everything. Well done, Melania,” another added.

Many were eager to learn what he said to Biden and Harris, and according to lip reader Jeremy Freeman, Barron greeted Biden saying, “G’day to you sir” before turning to Harris with the words, “Ma’am, good day.”

Biden replied, “It’s good to see you, man.”

Body language expert Judy James said Barron “very confidently” and “charmingly” bent to shake hands with Biden.

“And although Biden’s face seems to fall as though Barron has passed on some kind of sinister threat or message, the truth was less dramatic as Barron seemed to be leaning to greet Kamala and Biden’s face was registering the fact that he’d finished his greeting ritual with Trump’s son,” James said.

Further, James explained that now that he’s older, when accompanying his parents to important events, Barron arrives before them and leaves behind them, thus spending time shaking hands and offering gracious-looking words.

“He lets everyone know that he is becoming a force to be reckoned with in his own right and because of his height and the increase in his confidence signals, it gives him a rather princely air, presence-wise. Biden had been on the receiving end of a flame-thrower speech from Trump, where he had sat in a variety of poses including pained deflation and bravado smiling as his entire four years in office were scorched to ashes.”

One of those poses that caught the attention of many was Barron Trump’s unique hand gesture.

Namely, at one point, Trump’s youngest son did the Mr Burns thing with his hands.

Body language expert Darren Stanton considers Barron Trump’s unique hand gesture, known as the politician’s steeple, in which the fingertips on each hand touched to form a triangle shape, an authoritative position.

“It just shows they believe themselves to be an authority on the topic they’re discussing, and there are two main elements to this gesture. It’s a display of authority if their hands are together. They’re saying, ‘In my opinion, this is what needs to happen’. And they expect to be listened to,” Stanton said.

“Tapping whilst using the politician’s steeple means they’re considering what’s being said,” he added. “They’re essentially thinking whether there is any merit to it. People who work in Sales use this when they’re talking to people, as they are processing a lot of information as they speak.”

Currently, Barron Trump is attending New York University (NYU).

This means he won’t be residing in the White House. His mom, however, would be splitting her time between Washington DC., New York, and Florida.
