You know, given someone was shot dead at his rally, I'm not sure how much I care if he was shot in the ear or not. I know there might be some mouth breathers who think he's cooler for getting grazed in the ear but like... It was still an assassination attempt regardless, right? Or is the conspiracy that someone really hated that ex-firefighter?
Point is, miss by an inch or miss by a mile, a shot was shot. I hate the guy but debating the state of this assholes ear seems like a waste when we could be talking about Harris, lol
Just because audience got shot doesn’t mean every bullet was a real round.
Again, we don’t know until proven so take this with lots of salt but, it’s not too hard to make the first 3 shots a blank, trump hides after the first few shots, and the shooter keeps shooting the non blank shots.
I think his team is too incompetent to pull this off, but it’s definitely possible.
Well, I do have to say it is interesting. I'm no expert on gun shot wounds of any kind, but I'm not sure how much visible damage should remain at this point. His doctor, Ronny Jackson said that the bullet track “produced a 2 cm wide wound that extended down to the cartilaginous surface of the ear."
This image is from this article and is dated Aug-24, 2023, obviously before he was injured.
This is from the post mentioned in the article dated July-27, 2024, nearly 2 weeks after the injury.
I can't see any marks from a bullet wound. Am I blind? It has only been 1.5 to 2 weeks since the injury. Shouldn't there still be some visible scarring if it was an actual hit and left a 2 cm (that's about 3/4" for my fellow Americans) wide track down to the cartilage?
Sure, but that's not been seen in pictures. In order to do cartilage damage, it would have had to tear the upper ear lobe. What we have in pictures is blood (ears bleed like crazy due to thin membane and high blood pressure) after the shooting, and then Trump without bandages playing golf.
I'm not pushing any conspiracy theories here, but if I may just say, that the whole bandage thing at the convention was absolutely bullshit. It's clear he dodged a bullet, literally, because a person in the crowd was killed. What I'm saying is that Ronny Jackson's take, and Trump's photos and behavior after the fact don't match up.
Prosthetics and make-up can explain this. Leonard Nimoy's ears were pointy when he was on camera on Star Trek, but not the rest of the time. It is all stuff they can control for.
I don't understand what Souza is saying. That Trump was struck by broken glass rather than a bullet? Ok fine, there was considerable uncertainty about that for a while, so maybe there still is. That Trump was not hit by anything at all and that the whole thing is a fake? That is far fetched.
Why would he or his make up artist try to downplay the only real way he'll ever gain a modicum of mass sympathy? He's not someone trying to hide the fact that he barely missed catching a bullet, so playing with make up to hide something he's going to talk about until he dies doesn't make any sense to me.
The wildest one I read was that Trump razored his own ear, a skill he learned from WWE wrestlers, and the kid was a CIA plant that they knew couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn.
Tiny explosives were placed in the mounting brackets of the teleprompters.
The best evidence we have that Trump didn’t get grazed by the bullet is from Trump himself when he got mad fbi director said the investigation is ongoing and that we don’t know if it was a bullet or shrapnel that hit Trump.
He didn’t get hit by a bullet, he was cut by shrapnel or something.
Those Trumpists shitheads love conspiracy theories about pedophile (an antisemitic dog whistle) lizard people (an antisemitic dog whistle) trafficking in children in the non-existent basement dungeons of pizza parlours but when anyone questions whether their orange God king might have been hit by flying glass they lose their fucking minds.
I don’t want to dive into conspiracy theory but realistically, im gonna have doubt until i see a clear wound of some kind… like why wouldn’t there be one right?
They're going to come out and say Trump is a mutant! This is some sort of guerrilla marketing for Deadpool and Wolverine isn't it? Damn you, Ryan Reynolds!
The more I hear about this, the funnier these pictures become. They're really hauling him out like he was shot in the chest. The one they keep saying is going to make America great again apparently wouldn't survive an ear piercing at Claire's. Teddy wouldn't have even flinched.
