Donald Trump shaking Justice Elena Kagan's hand. Note how he pulls her hand/arm higher and toward him. Both of these movements are not not acceptable components of a handshake. Trump is deliberately trying to cause pain and assert dominance. #SOTU #BodyLanguageExpert #BodyLanguage - ThreadSky

Tfg's both a misogynist and a sadist. He enjoys harming women.

was his mommy bad...are all women the same

stadomenica1356.bsky.social•18 days ago

Fucking creep.

alannah56.bsky.social•18 days ago

Exerting dominance.

jkkcalifornia.bsky.social•18 days ago

Woulda been great if she accidentally kneed him in the diaper.

shar76.bsky.social•17 days ago

He does that handshake with all women. Insecure POS.

bornat3b.bsky.social•18 days ago

Do you remember when he tried that hand tug with PM Trudeau, and Trudeau nearly toppled him over by being ready for it? He stabilized T with his other hand, but no tug.

And then this: https://www.bbc.com/culture/article/20170217-what-that-trudeau-trump-handshake-moment-means

It's an abusive action that he is accustomed to.

jenoloughlin.bsky.social•18 days ago

If I were her, I’d clasp my other hand over his in a hearty shake and press down on that IV bruise.

clorindawelling.bsky.social•18 days ago

While he's pulling fall forward on his knee you know...

tonto60.bsky.social•18 days ago

He does this ALL THE TIME. I'd be yanking him right back to me. Jerk.

pharmboy81.bsky.social•18 days ago

I just loathe him so much

rbsnst.bsky.social•18 days ago

Exactly…….abuse

sparky42.bsky.social•18 days ago

Men in women’s sports…it’s a reminder.

jaxbbax.bsky.social•18 days ago

She didn't have to offer her hand.

ejgold17.bsky.social•18 days ago

Kamala is the only woman so far that has counter that handshake correctly. I bet Shainbaum would be successful, too.

unitedresistance.bsky.social•18 days ago

Every person who touches his hand should jerk it as hard as they can. The stupid old man needs to be jerked around.

ravenvulpes.bsky.social•18 days ago

Should have decked the fucker.

summergirl703.bsky.social•18 days ago

One reason he hates Trudeau. Trudeau asserted dominance.

gloriarheagrante.bsky.social•18 days ago

Other reasons: the PM is younger than him, FLOTUS sidled up and made goo-goo eyes at him once, as Himself stood dumbly by and watched, Canada bankrupted two Trump International Towers (Toronto & Vancouver), and his daughter was run out of town with her Nordstrom Vancouver shoes and bags in tow.

Macron says that he does this with everyone he shakes hands with.

waterbaby.bsky.social•18 days ago

he is afraid of her

noellepnw.bsky.social•18 days ago

Twisting her arm, the b*****d

mikeree.bsky.social•18 days ago

In this situation just use your free hand to grab his nuts, if he has any.

quinnyergi.bsky.social•18 days ago

He is so vile.

sdsunchaser.bsky.social•18 days ago

Fuck Trump. He’s a total ass.

orangeintheroc.bsky.social•18 days ago

I would squeeze his hand so hard he wouldn’t be able to shake another hand for a month.

msshawnnaolouisey.bsky.social•18 days ago

Dig the fingernails in..

waa2112.bsky.social•18 days ago

He tries this idiotic move every time.

Plus the forefinger and middle finger extended onto the other person's wrist as he pulls them towards himself.

michaelmanning.bsky.social•18 days ago

Correct.

idiocracyistrue.bsky.social•17 days ago

She should put her hand in a cast like Nancy Mace did.

nynancyo.bsky.social•18 days ago

Well, she should have screamed. Show people he's a monster. What a weak show of bullshit. I'm leaving the Democrat Party after this weak fucking display in thr room.
