Body language expert Patti Wood is weighing in on President Biden and Donald Trump‘s debate, and says just a few key gestures could impact who wins the war of words.
Patti tells TMZ … viewers need to look out for 4 first impression factors, including credibility, likability, attractiveness, and power. Patti noted she’ll keep a close eye on Biden Thursday night, as she says he’s a master at likability — citing his smile and crinkle around his eyes as evidence.

But, Patti’s quick to point out Trump has one very important strength … which is projecting power.
She says Trump really shines when he channels his anger, with audiences thinking his louder voice and scowl are a show of strength.
According to Patti, the candidates might try to branch out of their wheelhouses a bit. Watch what she predicts Biden might do to take up more space, and why.
To borrow a rather misogynist phrase … Patti says Trump might wanna try smiling more, and in a particular way. She explains the wry side-smile he’s known to flash, won’t cut it if he’s going for likability.

Patti predicts power will end up being the most important factor … as both candidates have had their age called into question at different times. Translation, no one wants the Commander in Chief to come off as weak!!!
Patti authored the self-help book, “Snap: Making the Most of First Impressions, Body Language, and Charisma” and tells us these factors come through much more during a debate, than standard political speeches.
Watch the clip … she says there’s a very good reason for that.
