Anyone watching the video of the shooting can see it for themselves: Trump is talking, suddenly puts his right hand to his right ear, apparently hears and feels something very unusual, and gets down rapidly, to be covered by his secret service detail just a couple seconds later. By then he's already bleeding as seen in another photo taken of his head, on the ground under all those agents. I may be wrong but it seems plainly obvious that the bullet really did graze his ear, considering that 1. he was being shot at, 2. that and other bullets went into the spectators behind him and 3. he was bleeding from the ear just a second or two after multiple bullets were fired in his direction.
People claiming he was cut by his secret service detail or by glass (from where the fuck?) are spinning an odd little story despite excellent visual evidence to the contrary. Possibly to play down how close he came to being shot dead right there and then.
- TowerTall 2y agoI am not saying in anyway that foul play has happend, but why is there no blood on Donald Trump hand after he has touched his ear? On the TV picture you can clearly see his hand the moment after he touched his ear and there is not visbible blood on it.
- southernplaces7 2y agoWatch the video. Unless you think he actually squeezed a fake blood bag or ketchup pack against his ear for some unfathomably bad reason, it's very real. You're sort of beating a dead horse here. Multiple reports, photos, video etc have confirmed that he did indeed get shot and that the injury to his ear was the result of that incredibly (for him) lucky near miss grazing his ear. Either all the visual evidence (including live video and photos by seasoned, respected third party photojournalists) was somehow amazingly falsified, or Trump literally used fake blood to make it seem like he got injured by the bullet (an incredible assertion even by Trump standards) or he really was shot just as has now been widely reported. Also, that he would grab that specific ear just as the shot went by, and moments later suffer an injury completely unrelated to a bullet in that exact ear, would be an extraordinary coincidence. Caused by what else?
