This also sends a clear message to Trump: "If you talk, we'll kill you."

@GeorgeG Viktor Bout "Russia's "merchant of death" offered Donald Trump asylum in Russia this week, saying he believes the former president's life is in danger if he remains in the United States.

In an interview on a Russian state-TV channel, Viktor Bout—an international arms dealer made infamous after his portrayal by Nicolas Cage in the 2005 film "Lord of War"..." - newsweek.com/russias-merchant-

@TheAbbotTrithemius Propaganda aimed at both the Russian people (don't cross me or you'll get the same) and his American supporters.
Look at how it works in both contexts. In the Russian frame of reference: "They will kill political opponents - just like we do." But, projecting to Americans: "We'll help you. We're your friends. You should like us." ...while they continue to commit war crimes.

He's been trained - ineffectively - to tame these affectations. They continuously return and his speaking is effected with pauses. In English it would sound like "umm" and "uhh". He's making a conscious effort to stifle his tells. The speech is heavily rehearsed to aid the stifling of the affectations.

From his body language: "I'm lying." He's shifting his weight from foot to foot -"Which way will I go, if I need to run, if you don't buy what I'm selling? I'll keep you guessing." When looking at the people he's talking to his eyes dart to the left. Even with his left eye being lazy, you can still see this. He's actively referencing the creative (left) part of the brain - used to create a lie. When looking right his eyes dart rarely: "I'm returning to the script I've heavily rehearsed."
