Barron Trump<\/a>\u00a0was spotted making some peculiar hand gestures at his father Donald Trump during the latter\u2019s Presidential Inauguration ceremony. For the uninformed, Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th president of the United States on January 20.<\/p>\n

The 18-year-old appeared to be making a particular move that politicians are said to make to assert authority and confidence. The hand gesture is said to be The Politician\u2019s Steeple and involves touching the fingertips of each hand that forms a triangle shape.<\/p>\n

Barron Trump\u2019s move was heavily discussed in a viral TikTok video, in which behavioral analysts linked the gesture to those \u201coften possessing great power and not concerned with outside opinions.\u201d The analysts also suggested that his previous image as a humble guy was most \u201clikely a disguise.\u201d The video further added that the teen looks like a \u201ctrue politician\u201d, and he might even follow in his father\u2019s footsteps in the future.<\/p>\n

Darren Stanton, a body language expert had previously stated to\u00a0The Sun<\/em>\u00a0that The Politician\u2019s Steeple is widely considered an authoritative position. He claimed, \u201cIt just shows they believe themselves to be an authority on the topic they\u2019re discussing, and there are two main elements to this gesture. It\u2019s a display of authority if their hands are together. They\u2019re saying, \u2018In my opinion, this is what needs to happen\u2019. And they expect to be listened to.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stanton also added, \u201cTapping whilst using the politician\u2019s steeple means they\u2019re considering what\u2019s being said.\u201d He even stated, \u201cThey\u2019re essentially thinking whether there is any merit to it. People who work in Sales use this when they\u2019re talking to people, as they are processing a lot of information as they speak.\u201d<\/p>\n

The hand gesture also has links to Uttarabodhi Mudra, a yogic position that represents enlightenment. Uttarabodhi is a Sanskrit word that comprises two words- Uttara which means \u201cupwards\u201d and Bodhi meaning \u201ctowards awakening.\u201d The move is also mentioned by the self-professed \u201cmisogynist\u201d influencer Andrew Tate in his podcasts. He had said, \u201cI do it because it increases my power. It\u2019s like a power-up.\u201d<\/p>\n

At Donald Trump\u2019s inauguration on January 20, his son Barron was highly appreciated for his impeccable manners after he went up to\u00a0Joe Biden<\/a>\u00a0and Kamala Harris. As both of them were stepping down from their roles, Barron extended his hand towards them for a warm handshake.<\/p>\n
