There is a lot to decode in the symbolism and as you stated up front, it is through the emotionally stained lens that we interpret. I could look through the lens of the tarot symbolism and can break down the composition of this photo and the elements that were allowed in the frame of the image. Or I can interpret it through esoteric symbolism like hand mudras/ gestures, pole symbolism with the pole of the flag flanking the left side, the symbolism of the right ear, the direction or reorientation of the flag rotated clockwise, the 4 bodyguards flanking his body, his legs not visible, alludes to Chariot symbolism in tarot, also the 4 cardinal signs and elements surrounding the 5th element, 5th being Trump in the center, like the pole star. The right arm/ hand in the air, Trump is also a Gemini (air sign) and right side of body being representative of the masculine energy, but the fist 👊🏼 plays into symbolism of “hand of god” especially how he “miraculously” dodged a bullet
One can dig a trench so deep in analysing the symbolism beyond the surface level optics
