I've unconsciously done this same move when I meet someone. I've been told by some who don't know me except in business that I'm intimidating (as a woman). It took me a long time to train myself not to do it. Can testify that body language can telegraph way more than what is intended. Trump is an alpha male. He probably knows exactly what he is doing and the message it sends.
Fuck them. You shake hands how you want. If they are intimidated by your handshake, that's their problem. Jesus from thumbs up to the A-ok thumb and forefinger, these people just need to be intimidated and offended by everything but themselves. If we ever meet, feel free to shake my hand however you feel fit. I'll even wash them for you.
I think that his hand on top is a domination move.
I've heard of it in this context before:
Another thing one can do to dominate is put a hand on somebody's shoulder or back.
I am not on Twitter and I can't see the reply comments.

He is signalling to “our greatest ally” ™️ that he has the upper hand.
It would be interesting to see the setting for the photo, the mural / painting in the background.
Nothing Trump does is without thought.
I wish. I hate the big smile here but maybe it's like him and the pope
That is a power move hand shake.

Cant wait for that meeting Nitrojunkie72. Thanks for the support.
The art of the shake
Don't usually see him smiling quite that broadly, either...
This doesn't look like his "Happy Smile" either; usually the bridge of his nose scrunches up when he smiles big for a photo.
Yes, you're right. This is something else.
Like when he and mela ia met the pope. Big smile
