Donald Trump isn’t scheduled to take the mic until the final day of the Republican National Convention, but his demeanor has already sparked conversation about the long-lasting impact of the shooting. Body Language Expert Traci Brown also believes that Trump is showing a different side to his temperament. “We’re seeing a softer look from him,” said Brown. “Body language can’t reveal vulnerability but we do see him showing much less anger than normal as evidenced by reduced scowl lines on his glabella area,” she added, explaining that it’s the area “between the eyebrows above the bridge of the nose.”
When Donald Trump entered the convention hall, there was a new look of humility in his eyes I have never seen before. This is a man who knows he would not be alive but by the grace of God. pic.twitter.com/6hmb604B5d

Brown also noted Trumps demeanor in the tunnel before he arrived on stage, indicating an “unusual” reaction. “And while he was in the tunnel for a moment we saw a bit of sadness as evidenced by his eyebrows turning up at the glabella and quickly followed after that something very unusual, a look of peace,” added Brown. “We don’t see any of these from him often. So it’s reasonable to assume the shooting has affected him.”
