Is it an affectation that they’re trained to deploy? (If so, why?) Or is it just a natural thing that happens in the very specific circumstance of being a politician on the campaign trail, and that’s why no one else seems to do it?
I don’t think I’ve seen it in any other context 🤔

It’s all about portraying authority and trying to give off the “trust me” vibe.
I’d love to see an interviewer respond with a bizarre hand gesture in response.
