Do all of those wild hand gestures of Trump's include any "tells" that reveal when he's lying?

Yes, I know, you can tell he's lying if his lips are moving.

But seriously, just as poker players can read the body language of their opponents and know what cards they're holding, maybe all of those crazy gestures that Trump makes as he speaks can be read and used to identify when he's telling what he knows to be a particularly egregious lie.

I'm not a poker player, and beside that I find it extremely difficult to listen to Trump, but maybe someone who's good at reading body language might want to look into this.
