Victory, triumph, but with an overtone of having proven one’s ability over a naysayer. A sort of “you were wrong, now eat your words!” feeling. I think the expression of disgust has to do with imagining how his opponent and/or naysayers would feel if they were to actually “eat their words” and feeling a sense of schadenfreude over it.
So actually, now that I’ve written that, I think I would describe it as a schadenfreude sense of victory.
Keith – There is definitely a show of disgust but the body language also suggests other emotions as well. Thank you for your remarks.
