Kamala Harris might just have had the last laugh all the way to the White House — especially if she keeps using that softer laugh she debuted during Tuesday night’s debate … according to a body language expert.
Tonya Reiman tells TMZ Kamala’s new muted laugh is a sharp departure from her usual high-pitched cackle … suggesting she was coached to dial it down to win over viewers.

Tonya tells us men in particular usually take offense to a woman’s guffaw, seeing it as off-putting — so a softer, more refined laugh helps Harris seem more relatable and likable.

Reiman wonders if the old cackling was just for show … but either way, she says Kamala should 100% stick with her new, toned-down laugh.

However, she says Kamala should still work on her smile, noting that at times it didn’t quite reach her eyes during the debate, making it look less genuine.
Still, it’s quite a turn since Kamala’s cackle was her trademark, with memes and edits of her laugh all over social media — but for now, it looks like she’s trading in the laugh track for a softer tune.
