Barron Trump strikes 'alpha pose' as Melania becomes Donald's most prized 'jewel in political crown', but Ivanka lost…

Donald Trump's family stood behind him on stage in Florida as the GOP leader announced his historic victory in the 2024 US presidential election. Surrounded by his wife Melania, their son Barron and even Ivanka, who stayed away from his campaign, Trump also welcomed his Vice President JD Vance and his wife Usha Vance to the stage.

A body language specialist has now spoken out about Ivanka and her husband Jared Kushner's sombre behavior on the Mar-a-Lago stage last night, as well as their body language towards their father.

While Ivanka was seen in a sparkly blue velvet pantsuit, her husband Jared stood right next to her.

Judi James, a body language expert based in the UK, claims that although Ivanka was there to acknowledge her father's victory, the atmosphere last night was very different to when Trump celebrated his first victory in 2016.

Contrary to the 2016 scenario, Ivanka appears to have lost her crown as one of Trump's most adored children.

Speaking to Daily Mail, James explained that Melania is now being portrayed as Trump's most prized possession and jewel in the political crown. “Her styling is corporate power dressing and her poses are confident and strong.”

Instead of Ivanka, she noted, 18-year-old Barron now appears as “the anointed child” as he made a stunning entrance on stage with his parents and “struck an alpha pose.”

Lara Trump vs. Ivanka Trump

Lara Trump, who is married to Eric, also stole the spotlight at the event as she always seemed to get into every picture with Trump, displaying a “will to win,” the expert said.

According to last night's analysis, James said, “Ivanka's nonverbal signals now show detachment,” which is particularly different from Lara's.

“She no longer fully engages with everything her father says like Lara did, her gaze tended to appear distant and a little sad, and she was noticeably out of step with the audience and other friends and family when it came to applause .”

However, James noted that Ivanka seemed “more generous with her emotional revelations,” while Jared continued to seem “stiff.”

Hours before the election, Ivanka avoided discussing politics on her 43rd birthday. Instead, she took to her Instagram account and shared a list of 16 lessons she's learned so far.
