All That Booing Revealed the True Face of Trump: His face took the following journey over 15 seconds [View all]

n Sunday, Donald Trump got booed. I’m not telling you anything you haven’t already watched 30 or 40 times. He got buried by nearly 100 decibels of noise at Game 5 of the World Series, as the Washington Nationals played the Houston Astros in his adopted home of Washington, D.C. while surrounded by his wife, Melania Trump, and his most faithful pets, Lindsey Graham, Matt Gaetz, and more.

His face took the following journey over an amazing 15 seconds:




it is, remarkably, a face we’ve never seen on Trump before; we’ve seen a lot of versions of this guy during his life in the spotlight—from his time as the ’80s mascot for corporate greed to his time as a bankrupt casino owner to his time as a racist conspiracy theorist. Fifty years is a long time in the spotlight—you see a guy from a lot of angles.

This is the first time we’ve seen all the muscles in Trump's face strain against any reaction; the first time we’ve watched his breath catch. Even his lap dog Gaetz turned his head around slowly to clock how the president was handling it all (and it was as if Melania knew to keep her eyes forward). The reaction on his favorite platform, Twitter, has been largely celebratory, taking this ad hoc and pure expression of disapproval from the depths of the country’s capital and putting words to it. Of course, there were naysayers too. The hosts of MSNBC’s Morning Joe paid the incident some poorly pitched hand-wringing, saying no president deserved such a reaction. That take quickly became a chum in the water, helping to extend the story on Monday morning.
