Probably did see them but there weren't written in twitter format so he couldn't understand them. That made him mad so he did like any other spoiled rotten 2 year old, he paced back and forth. Then he started stalking. Crazy man very crazy.

by his thingie, podium?, but always stood on the middle side of it, toward her. She commented on how small a space it was and how he was kind of looming there.

My strong impression was that he is clearly very territorial, and she triggered that further when she walked to his side of the rostrum to speak to someone. He'd follow to that side, but only a couple of times indulged himself by following her away from his little designated territory.

They may have warned him severely about getting in her space, but it seems they may have not realized that his larger size and distance foreshortening were going to work against the big man instead of for. Dominating presence--not. Territorial gorilla presence--yes.
