The 2016 Candidates and what Their Signatures Tell Us

Signatures

According to Michelle Dresbold, a graduate of the United States Secret Service's Advanced Document Examination training program who's written a book on the subject, Carly Fiorina’s fancy “F” is “a bit pretentious,” and Hillary Clinton’s vertical slant shows her head rules her heart. Scott Walker’s signature, which appears to be “a strange version of Joe,” signals deception. And as for Trump, his writing suggests bigheadedness, anger and fear.

Some of these are really interesting.

Donald Trump’s signature has absolutely no curves, only angles. Curves in handwriting show softness, nurturing and a maternal nature. Angles show a writer who is feeling angry, determined, fearful, competitive or challenged. When a script is completely devoid of curves, the writer lacks empathy and craves power, prestige and admiration. Besides the bigheadedness that shows in this script there is something else that is rather over-sized—the “p” in “Trump.” This large phallic symbol shouts, “Me … big hunk of man.”

For some reason, Trump's signature didn't show up for me, so I just uploaded it here.

Funny read, I for one wouldn't put much on a signature but maybe I just don't know enough about them.

Yeah, it doesn't hold much weight for me, either. I just thought it was interesting. Besides, I could have said most of that stuff without seeing their signatures.

My god @ Trump's signature. A cave man's signature.

Here's another example of Trump's John Hancock:

Bwhaha, that is not cursive. That is a series of diagonal lines

She doesnt factor in whether they are right or left handed. This makes a big difference!

You ever sign your name a lot? You might be surprised at what it becomes. Most people who sign their names over and over have some variation of an indecipherable squiggle attached to some initials.

I wouldn't put too much stock in this analysis, especially since it's telling you exactly what you want to hear.

I put NO stock in this analysis. I can tell all I need to know without seeing their signatures. I just thought it was cute/interesting.

From my experience this info is spot on.
