Body language experts analyzed the latest rallies of US presidential candidates and said one seems more exhausted than the other.
Both Vice President Harris, 60, and former President Trump, 78, continued campaigning on the eve of choice day, slandering each otherand present their visions for the future to multitudes of voters.
Experts told DailyMail.com that Trump, who participated in four rallies on Monday compared to Harris’s five, appeared to be “low on energy,” while Harris was “feeding off the momentum,” although she herself seemed quite tired.
This follows an analysis of the two candidates’ speech patterns, which suggested Trump was showing slightly more signs of panic as the polls approached.
Using artificial intelligence, the site WordTips found that 21.2 percent of Trump’s words and 19.3 percent of Harris’s words showed signs of stress when speaking without a script.
Meanwhile, Blair Huddy, CEO of public relations strategy firm Hudson Davis Communications, said the Harris campaign’s messaging during its Monday blitz “was on point,” while Trump’s “was confusing and confusing. ..his communication style was low energy.”
Dr. Robi Ludwig, a New York City-based psychotherapist, said Harris seemed more “coiffed” and “secondary” than her opponent last night, adding that “she has a script that she follows to stay on message.”
Kamala Harris has been able to maintain energy at her rallies, although she appears tired, experts told DailyMail.com. He is pictured at a campaign rally on Monday in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Experts told DailyMail.com that at this point in the campaign, Trump is “low on energy.” He is pictured at a campaign rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Dr. Ludwig said Trump’s meandering speeches on Monday reflect a myriad of factors not working in his favor: his advanced age, constant attacks on his character, two assassination attempts and his suboptimal physical condition.
She said: ‘Sometimes when you’re exhausted you’re less regulated, and so is his type of long talk.
‘He seems to enjoy it; he likes the audience. But there are other factors you have to deal with that are very different. And at his rallies he speaks for the entire two hours.
He added that his rallies aren’t really focused on entertainment; it’s more about him speaking and connecting directly with the crowd in a raw and unpolished way.
While he seems to enjoy interacting with his audience and sometimes brings in guests to speak with him, it’s easy to imagine that this approach could be more exhausting than that of Harris, who sticks to the script, keeps his message concise and whose rallies are, according to Dr. Ludwig, a “well-oiled machine.”
Trump held rallies in Raleigh, North Carolina, Reading, Pennsylvania, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and Grand Rapids, Michigan, on Monday.
Meanwhile, Harris rallied voters in Scranton, Allentown, Reading, Rankin and Philadelphia, all in Pennsylvania.
After analyzing both sets of speeches, Lakesha Cole, who has worked with politicians as founder of public relations agency ShePR, told DailyMail.com that wWhile Trump’s demeanor is typically bombastic, defiant and spectacular, on Monday he seemed much more subdued and often spoke in a low, melancholy tone.
But Cole added that there’s no doubt both candidates, including Harris, are tired.
‘It’s hard to believe that both candidates aren’t dealing with serious fatigue or exhaustion right now.
‘One of them has been running for president for almost nine years, while the other has been racing to catch up in just over 100 days.
It’s also worth noting, experts said, that at age 78, Trump might be expected to show some lag in his energy.
The busy schedule he has maintained in recent weeks has led him to sleep little and make a lot of physical effort.
Harris “created energy” in her meetings, communications experts said, although she seemed quite tired. She is photographed in Philadelphia.
Trump, pictured in Grand Rapids, Michigan, held four rallies on Monday, the eve of Election Day. His rally in Michigan began at 10:30 p.m.
AI speech analysis of top politicians’ speeches shows that Donald Trump displays relatively low stress markers in his language, which could reflect confidence in his speaking style.
Meanwhile, Vice President Harris has had just 100 days into Trump’s four years to rally voters and curry favor with those who remain undecided.
Cole added: “When you think about how intense that is, it’s almost impossible to imagine her not being exhausted.” The pace, pressure and demands of the election campaign would wear anyone down.
In an Oct. 31 speech, the 60-year-old looked haggard and exhausted, and a stolen yawn at Marine two days earlier pointed out the obvious: The vice president needs more sleep.
Some clues point to the general stress levels of each campaign in the run-up to the elections by classifying them according to their vocabulary.
Analysis of the language of the 2024 US presidential candidates by WordTips found that Donald Trump has one of the smallest vocabularies, with around 409 unique words per 1,000 words.
Analysis of stress levels found that Donald Trump displays relatively low stress markers in his language, which could reflect confidence in his speaking style.
Kamala Harris, however, shows moderate stress indicators, possibly suggesting a more cautious or carefully measured approach.
