Why politicians soften the warrior gesture. Earlier this week I showed you the warrior: one finger raised, your sword, the gesture that adds authority. Watch Donald Trump on any stage and you will see him use a version of it constantly. Except he usually does not raise the finger. He brings the thumb and forefinger together instead. That is what I call the soft warrior. The full warrior, delivered by someone with real power, can come across as too dominating. It starts to feel like an order. Pol
