• Images show Musk making a “pyramid” or steepled hand gesture that Trump appeared to mirror, a common posture in politics often linked by body‑language analysts to confidence or focus.
• Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One that Musk “came over and said hello,” characterizing the moment as a polite conversation rather than a sign of rapprochement.
