Granite face Trump shows struggle when asked if lonely as he 'escapes emotions'
Donald Trump put on a "granite face" exposing his struggle when he was asked if he feels lonely at the top as the ex-President battled to "escape his own emotions."
That's according to body language expert Judi James, who analysed Trump's recent bombshell interview with conservative host Greg Kelly. The embattled and controversial former president was asked a question that caused him to pause for a second, turning his face to stone and swerving "to avoid emotional leakage."
At one point in the interview, Kelly asks, "Mr President, I'm really curious what it's like for you. Your life. No one's gone through what you've gone through. Nobody in human history... They say it's lonely at the top. And I'm curious, is it ever lonely?"

But body language expert Judi James tells TheMirror.com the question had Trump "keen to escape his own emotions," causing him to refer to himself, bizarrely, in the third person.
When talking about Biden, Trump let himself loose, as he often does - the most animated we see him. "He looked happier getting angry about Biden, reciting his ‘He’s the worst President in the history of our country’ with his head rocking from side to side," Judi said.

His head lowered and jutted forward and the word ‘Biden’ was delivered with a jutting of the lower teeth," said Judi, as Kelly asked Trump about various issues.
"Comparing Biden’s documents charges to his own he suddenly sat more upright and shrugged his shoulder while his cheeks rose in a pinched shape that looked like a wince of pain," states Judi.
"His eyes darted as though collecting his thoughts and words. ‘I took them very legally and I wasn’t hiding them’ was his comment. Most mentions of these accusations were prompted by Trump himself bringing the subjects up rather than being defensive in the face of hard questioning."
Trump also got a little strange when prompted with certain questions about his policy thoughts. "He looked far less assured being asked about the Tik Tok ban. His eyes fell to the side and his lower teeth protruded as he said ‘I didn’t say anything other than...’ in what sounded like a verbal back-pedal," said Judi.

"Asked if it was lonely at the top, his face suddenly looked hewn out of granite. Told he had gone through more than most, he flipped into third-person mode as though keen to escape his own emotions by looking at himself from a comfortable distance, possibly from behind an imaginary sofa."
"‘Nobody’s been treated like Trump’ was his way of avoiding any emotional leakage," explained Judi. In the video, you can see Trump turn from aggressive at times to excited, but at this portion, his face remains still, Judi said.

Andrew Jackson "was treated the absolute worst" until Trump came along, Trump claims and Abraham Lincoln came in second.

But Trump maintained for Kelly and the audience that his experience topped that of both former leaders—one of whom was assassinated on the job.
"Nobody has — when you think of the fake things. Nobody’s been treated like Trump in terms of badly," Trump said Wednesday, referring to himself in the third person.
“Russia, Russia, Russia, Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine. Everything was a scam, and it literally starts a new one,” he continued. “As you win one, you start the other impeachment hoax number one, impeachment hoax number two. All hoaxes and scams. And I said, if they ever devoted their time to making America great again, it would be a lot easier.”

"The non-critical, smoke-blowing tone of this interview was defined by the ‘killer’ question whether Trump was protected during all his court hearings by the ‘Hand of God’. Even Trump, with his black belt in hyperbolic self-promotion, baulked at this idea that he is receiving divine protection, referring instead to ‘some kind of protective force,'" said Judi.
"When his personal losses came up, with references to his late brother, sister, mother and ex-wife, he performed a tongue-poke to suggest he was uncomfortable and rejecting of the emotional path he was being directed down," says Judi.
Trump then went on about how it's important to grieve but mentioned that he tried to avoid crying. He got emotional when talking about his mother-in-law, Melania's mum, who recently died. He mentioned his sister, and brother, saying he "can't help" grieving. "I find nothing wrong with it, but I don't like to do it in public," Trump said.
While explaining out loud that he tries to avoid public displays of emotion, he ended the interview by saying, "In many ways, perhaps if you don't grieve, perhaps you're not such a good person."
