The image above shows President Trump disembarking Air Force One as he begins his 2017 Easter weekend at Mar-a-Lago.
His "Thumbs-Up" illustrator is, of course, an extremely common gesture - particularly for politicians. It's an almost universal emblem meant to indicate optimism, an affirmation of a good decision, a positive judgment of what just occurred/is occurring, and other similar thought-emotions. The thumbs-up display is also a very conscious action.
Now contrast this hand-arm configuration with that of Donald Trump's face. The President's facial expression is highly indicative of both Contempt (his primary emotion in this moment) as well as Disgust (secondary). These emotions are, in this instant, very unconsciously displayed.
Whenever there is an apparent disparity in body language - it's a signal you must dig deeper. In such cases, it is the nonverbal signal which is subconsciously initiated which indicates the true thought-emotions.
Summary: President Trump's thumbs-up display, is in this image, is a deception - yet his face tells the truth.
