Dressed in a blue suit with a pink tie, slicked-back hair, and a full, trimmed beard, Donald Trump Jr. made his way into the courthouse surrounded by members of his legal team, as well as multiple police officers. Jess Ponce III, body language expert, communication coach, and author of “A.W.E.S.O.M.E.”, observed Trump Jr.’s arrival and, in an exclusive interview with The List, revealed what attitude he was conveying through his stance, posture, and walk.
“His shoulders were back, he was looking straight forward and had a smile, maybe even a smirk, on his face,” Ponce noted. “He had a steady gait and seemed unaffected by the situation.” The expert shared that people who are about to be examined on the witness stand might be more self-conscious, gazing downward, but Trump Jr. looked very self-assured. “When asked how he was feeling he said, ‘great’ and gave a thumbs-up,” remarked Ponce. “In fact, he came across a bit cocky.”
Inside the courthouse, before he took the stand, he could be overheard joking about how he should have worn makeup. Ponce took this as another cue that Trump Jr.’s attitude was less than somber. “Is this something he takes seriously? Maybe, but not very,” shared the body language pro. “This appeared to be just another day in the media circus surrounding him and his family.”
