In a longer and fairly uninteresting video with chatter but no dialogue (until speeches) we see how Trump socializes with other dignitaries, greeting them graciously, turning, greeting another, then another, then another. He holds their shoulder, looks at their face, smiles graciously, shakes their hand. Interesting too observing a woman attracted to power like a magnet. Then in the end it's simply sitting down to an elegant dinner. Trump rises from his chair to greet another dignitary that drifts by behind him. Then again. And again.
But not for Trudeau.
Trudeau glides in behind seated Trump and taps Trump's shoulder. Trump glances over his shoulder to see who tapped him then ignores the signal and resumes talking.
Interesting too is the Secret Service man with silver hair watching the left side of the room like a hawk while doing an amazing job of disguising his prosthetic left arm.
All that in this video where the snub is so subtle that it doesn't show.

But it does show in this shorter video shot from another angle. Incidentally, while looking for a better video, I noticed on YouTube tons of videos [justin trudeau ignored] at G20, at U.N. all over the place. Whereas Trump owns every room he walks into and people gravitate toward him, Trudeau flits around like a butterfly looking for people to talk to.
Click on the tweet for more angles of this that together show the fast interaction clearly.
We found the video of Justin Trudeau getting ignored by Donald Trump at today's UN Secretary General's luncheon - three camera angles of Justin tapping Trump on the shoulder but it only lasts a split second around the 25 sec mark then repeated around the 46 sec mark #NAFTA #UNGA pic.twitter.com/gwN8SghY27— JohnToryWatch (@JohnToryWatch) September 25, 2018

Trump exudes vitality and purpose. He's also grounded in enough reality for people to be able to find or experience a sense of connect with him when he reaches out and makes himself available. I experience a place in him, I'll call it a center, of truth and grace under the cover of the inflation, self congratulation and conscious and/or unconscious game playing he also engages in.
His story makes sense to me and fits with who he's already revealed himself to be.
Amend that to say, most of his actions and behavior make sense to me as they fit with who he's already revealed himself to be.
He turned and greeted him and shook his hand. Where's the snub?
The snub is blow off shortness of it compared with all the rest. ALL the rest. You have to see the longer video to see how Trump greets everyone else to see the sharp distinction. By way of contrast, a 1 second handshake says, "piss off."
Trudeau thought he was another Ozero and acted like one.
This is what happens to lightweights.
