Viral silent video of Donald and Melania Trump at Sunday's Freedom 250 Grand Prix shows the first lady, arms crossed, getting up and walking away after an exchange with the president. Multiple body language experts consulted by HuffPost interpreted crossed arms, lack of 'fronting,' and a shift in facial expression as signs of tension, defensiveness, or anger.

The appearance marked one of Melania Trump's few public outings during the president's second term, following more than a month's absence and amid separate public interest in a White House aide.

✒ FROM THE EDITORIAL DESK

There is a whole cottage industry built on the premise that silent footage of two people sitting in chairs contains a hidden text, and that a consultant with the word ‘expert’ in their email signature can read it. Crossed arms are not a confession; they are, more often than not, a room with the air conditioning on. This desk holds that if the marriage of the most photographed couple in the country ever does collapse, it will not require a specialist to notice.
