Help me out here. Why does NBC news seem to show them smiling through the whole thing?

The boos go on way too long before the reaction - then juuuust as their faces start to change, NBC cuts the vid. It makes it look like the Trumps are stoically smiling through it, when that is not what happened.
From the word 'president' at 00:04 to the time they react at 00:19 in a 22 second clip - 15 seconds of smiles.
Look at this vid: same shot more or less, sound is not as loud, but from the word 'president' at 00:03 to the time they react at 00:10 is about 7 seconds, in clip that is only 15 seconds long.

It just seemed to me that the NBC clip was playing with timing to minimize the impact as well as their reactions. Maybe I'm imagining it. Anyway, there are plenty of other clips to go around!

From a distance, it might look like a Trump rally?

Melanias big smile faded, too, but realized she was probably on camera so quickly continued to clap and smile. Bravely. She knew. No sympathy for Mel. She knew what she was getting when she took up with him and then got married. If anything, she probably went after him. Congratulations, Toots. Sucks to be you, eh?
