Candid Trump: "Malevolent"

Alright. I have given it three hours to settle in. I have watched both many times now.

I have read "angrily," "grinding his teeth" Esquire), "teeth gritting" (USA Today), "a weirdly private moment" (Esquire). USA Today:

A flash of anger comes over Trump's face and he appears to grit his teeth as he angrily rips a page from his notepad. He then appears to collect himself as Hillary Clinton crosses the stage to shake hands with debate moderator Chris Wallace.

That is the fullest description. Accurate. 

Still, after three hours of watching, reading, and thinking about it, I am sticking with my first response: "malevolent."
