JD Vance's eyes exposed his dishonesty as he answered debate question on Trump, says body language expert

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Ohio Senator JD Vance is viewed as having performed effectively against his Democratic counterpart, Tim Walz, during the first vice presidential debate held on Wednesday, October 2.

While Donald Trump's running mate seemed to do well on the whole, in a recent analysis, body language expert Traci Brown revealed signs of deception in Vance's behavior during the debate, particularly when questioned about his stance on the GOP presidential nominee's controversial remarks.

JD Vance was uneasy when questioned about his past criticism of Donald Trump 

During the debate, a challenging moment arose for the Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance when moderator Margaret Brennan questioned him about his previous remarks about Trump, where the Ohio Senator labeled him "unfit", compared him to Hitler, and questioned the former president's economic policies.

"Why should Americans trust you'll give Donald Trump the advice he needs to hear, and not the just advice he wants to hear?" Brennan asked.

Traci Brown, in an exclusive interview with Nicki Swift, identified multiple gestures in Vance's two-minute reply that suggested he might not have been convinced by his own words.

The initial indication of Vance's dishonesty emerged even before he began to respond to the question. "Vance closes his eyes longer than a normal blink when he doesn't want to see or deal with a topic," Brown said.

Vance appeared uneasy when responding to the question regarding his running mate and even replicated Trump's debate body language. Vance replied, "Sometimes, of course, I've disagreed with the president, but I've been extremely open about the fact that I was wrong about Donald Trump."

While making this statement, Vance raised both hands with palms facing each other, a gesture that Brown characterized as "a cousin of Trump's accordion gesture." An action taken to address and manage an issue.

Body language expert Traci Brown observes signs of tension in JD Vance’s eyes

Body language expert Traci Brown detected increased tension in JD Vance, evident in his eyes as he responded to the moderator's question regarding his thoughts on Donald Trump's presidential capabilities.

"Most importantly, Donald Trump delivered for the American people. Rising wages. Rising take-home pay," Vance replied.

The expert believes that the eyes reveal the truth. "His blink rate on 'delivered' and '[rising] take-home pay' went very high. This indicates stress on the topic," Brown told Nicki Swift, before adding that Vance displayed the Trump-like "containment gesture" once again.

Meanwhile, Vance's latest gesture seemed to reinforce his claim of skepticism toward Trump. "I didn't think he'd be able to deliver on [those issues]," he told the moderator. At the time, Vance flashed his palms, which the expert indicated was a sign of "he's telling his truth."

At the end of his response, Vance appeared to have grown weary of the discussion on Trump and seemed prepared to change the subject. "I've been extremely consistent, that I think there are a lot of things that we could've done better in the Trump administration," Vance said.

As Brown noted, Vance displayed "the universal stop sign" while speaking that line. It appeared that Vance was genuinely uneasy answering questions about his previous disparaging comments regarding Trump.
