(12,606 posts)Method 1: Fingers wrap around the thumb If you clench your fists this way, externally you are likely witty and creative, but sensitive to criticism. Internally you are attuned to others feelings and desire to stay within your comfort zone.
Method 2: Thumb sits in front of the fingers: This fist style can mean that on the outside youre charming, sociable, and take on leadership roles. Internally, though, you rely on encouragement from others and worry about failing to meet your own expectations.
Method 3: Thumb wraps around the fingers: If you clench your fist this way, to others you appear to be imaginative, curious, and enthusiastic. On the inside, you sometimes feel insecure and worry that people take advantage of your enthusiasm and good cheer.
To me, Trump's clenched fist is halfway between #2 and #3 (mostly #3).
Addendum: Although originally used to express unity within the black community, since the 1980s the clinched fist has become appropriated by the white supremacist movement to represent "white pride" or "white power." (ADL)

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
