Barron Trump is now the anointed child which was Ivanka in 2016 but she and Jared are now in the background, body language expert Judi James decoded the new power equation in the Trump family for Daily Mail as evident from where they stood and how they reacted when Donald Trump was delivering the victory speech.
In 2016, Ivanka and her husband were right behind Melania and little Barron. Ivanka's body language in 2016 was like that of the First Lady and not her daughter because she was the 'anointed one'.
But in 2024, Ivanka and Jared stood next to Vice-President-elect JD Vance and his wife Usha.
And Melania is presented as Trump's greatest asset and jewel in the political crown and Barron Trump is the anointed child. Judi James said Melania's styling was corporate and her poses on Election Night were confident and strong. Barron who is remarkable for his 6'9'' height and is always the tallest person in every room, adopted an alpha pose standing alongside his mom and dad, the expert noted.
Eric Trump's wife Lara Trump, the co-chair of the Republican National Committee, has also gained prominence and with a "look of victorious determination" inserted herself into any photo that Trump was in.
'Ivanka detaching herself from father'
The body language expert said unlike Lara who was responding non-verbally to everything her father-in-law said, Ivanka distanced herself from her father. "She is no longer responding fully to everything her dad says, like Lara, her eye expression tended to look distanced and a little sad and she was noticeably not in tune with the audience and other friends and family when it came to applause," James said.
Donald Trump Jr's former wife Vanessa Trump, their daughter Kai Trump, Don Jr's fiancee Kimberly Guilfoyle were also there .
