Kamala Harris's body language shows the Vice President now believes Donald Trump will win the 2024 US Presidential Election, a behavioural expert has claimed.
Body language expert Darren Stanton described Harris as "tired" following her closing speech to Democrats yesterday.
Speaking on behalf of Spin Genie, Stanton said: "Kamala's big closing speech performance suggests she doesn't believe she can win.
"Her voice was very unconfident, her voice pitch was quite croaky.

"It was breaking at certain points, which shows stress. Internally, she isn't operating from a position of personal power.
"Whether she was tired, or whether there is something else going on.
"But in such an important address, just a week away from the polls, it was a lacklustre performance in voice and tone.
"It betrayed someone who wasn't supremely confident and ready to go into the White House."

REUTERSStanton also argued passionate gestures typically associated with impassioned political speeches were neglected in Harris's speech.
He added: "Harris lacked any passion and her voice betrayed a person who isn't confident in herself. It felt coached and a manufactured performance.
"Even the attacks on him lacked any level of passion.
"There isn't really any fire in her belly. She just seems flat in her tonality and doesn't seem to have any passion.

Looking at her hand gestures, when someone is passionate, they'll finger jab, something Boris Johnson used to do a lot, or a fist with his thumb out, accentuating the key points of what you're saying. We don't get this from Harris."
Opinion polls suggest the 2024 White House race remains too close to call, with Harris leading Trump in the popular vote by less than two per cent.
However, JL Partners co-founder James Johnson last night shared with GB News why he thinks Trump enters the final few days with an admittedly slim advantage.
He said: "In terms of what happens in a week's time, it is a very close race.

Reuters"There's absolutely no doubt about that. But we do think the race currently leans towards Donald Trump.
"Our model, which takes all of the different polls out there and weighs them depending on what we think is the best methodology out there and what has happened in previous elections too, shows a 68 per cent chance of a Trump victory.
"Now, look, that's not 90 per cent. That's not 80 per cent. We're still saying there's a 1-in-3 chance that Kamala Harris could win. But we think this is a race in Trump's favour."
Polling aggregator website FiveThirtyEight favours Trump to pick up Arizona, Georgia, Pennsylvania and North Carolina.
However, Harris looks poised to carry Nevada, Michigan and Wisconsin.
Such a scenario would put Trump on 281 Electoral College votes, with Harris narrowly behind on 257.
