Jeff Sessions has a tell

[luvMIdog]

every time he lies he looks like he's about to giggle. He gets a cat that ate the canary look on his face and has to suppress a giggle.

1. I have always thought the same thing; cat that swallowed the canary.

smirk ryan and smirk sessions; who do they think they are fooling?

2. Bet he would lose bigly at poker ;)

3. Hmmm

Actually he has several. In addition to the nervous laughter, he gets defensive easily and his eyes bulge when he is trying not to divulge information. He also rambles but loses track of the question or deflects onto something that isn't related to the question. His body language is awkward and his facial expressions contradict his words.

4. I have trouble picking out which ones are something he would use through his years of experience

as an attorney for camouflage & which is just his natural tell. I think the rambling & deflecting was done just to waste up the 5 minute time limit. I missed the eye bulge. I'll have to rewatch. Good catch

7. True that

I think he takes so much for granted because he isn't used to being questioned. And his mindset has him stuck in 1950 so he oozes righteous indignation. The eye bulge is a big one and when he gulps and his adam's apple twitches, he's lying. I am a psychologist so I study people daily. I don't think he camouflages anything well but he probably hasn't really had to. He was on a big stage and he wasn't prepared for it.

8. It's like he's so confident that nothing will happen to HIM he's not even worried about it.

He's had a privileged life for an awfully long time. I think sometimes those are the ones who think nothing will ever really happen to them. I really hope all this is not for nothing.

6. *chuckle* love the paper flutter

9. His only virtue no doubt.

At least it's a convenient one.

10. So does Trump

If he shows up he's about to lie.
