People spot the one move Trump pulled while listening to Starmer speak

Donald Trump appeared less than interested in the middle of the pair's press conference

Viewers have spotted an odd behaviour Donald Trump displayed during his conference with Keir Starmer.

Trump is currently on his UK tour, having met the King on Wednesday (17 September), but people noticed something he did alongside the British Prime Minister.

The US President already made headlines for seemingly breaking royal protocol by getting a bit touchy with King Charles and Prince William, with body language experts even claiming that the former was 'uneasy' at Trump's mannerisms.

Regardless, his speech at Windsor Castle garnered some laughs from attendees, with the Royal Family not looking too displeased with the 79-year-old.

Today, Trump met with Starmer ahead of a 'meeting with business leaders' and announced a groundbreaking 'technology prosperity deal' which involves monster tech firms like Microsoft and Nvidia pledging tens of billions of pounds to invest in the UK.

It's a huge step for both nations, which will go a long way to sweetening relations with our neighbours across the pond. As Trump even spoke of the 'unbreakable bond' the nations share, claiming they will 'dominate' the future of AI.

But when Starmer was praising the relationship between the nations and some of the tech companies involved in the deal, the 47th US President seemed less than interested.

In fact, people watching clocked on that he was more interested in how his nails looked, while the pair addressed the media.

One user wrote: "Trump picking his fingernails, looking like he's going to fall asleep at any moment...."



Another pointed out: "Trump checking his fingernails out through being bored out of his brains," while a third commented: "Love how Trump checks his fingernails during Starmer’s blathering."

Trump got the opportunity to blather on, speaking of the 'great history' the US and UK have, once again mentioning that he was the first President to be invited into Windsor Castle twice.

He also went on to speak about the deal, which includes the nations cooperating in work to do with AI, quantum computing, and nuclear power.

Microsoft is the biggest investor, announcing that it will spend a total of $30bn (£22bn), the biggest package it has outside the US, while Google said it would contribute £5bn into AI research and infrastructure until 2027.

Huge tech figures, such as OpenAI boss Sam Altman, were present at the state banquet at Windsor Castle on Wednesday evening, alongside the US President.

Trump also mentioned that tariffs he placed on several countries earlier this year, which he alleged have made 'trillions of dollars' for the US, while Starmer said a 'tough negotiation' led to the UK avoiding these massive tariffs in what he said was a 'win for both sides'.
