Shortly after becoming president, many noticed the bizarre and dominant way in which Trump shakes hands with others

Based on many documented public appearances, Donald Trump has often exuded gestures that many feel is an attempt to assert his masculinity.
During the presidential debates, many were turned off by Trump's creepy looming over Hillary Clinton during a town hall. Additionally, Trump's minor gestures, such as a back pat, long hand shake, or back slap are other ways for him to show his power.
