>> what about this? >> it's like a hammer going down, right? that's a negative. >> right. she's trying to hammer the guy. >> fascinating. >> yeah. >> now, do you believe all these candidates have worked with expert coaches, body language coaches. >> i don't know about trump. i'm sure he has. and i don't know about sanders. they're just so authentic, it doesn't come across so scripted as it does with cruz or hillary clinton. >> so if the vote is decided on nonverbal communication messages, i'm not going to ask you to make a flat prediction, but you think sanders and trump are in the driver's seat? >> absolutely. the primaries are different, but in a general, i would say tr ushgs m pshgsump beats clinton and sanders beats trump.
