Shot fired at Trump?

CNN: It’s ‘Wildly Irresponsible’ For Trump — Who Was Shot In The Head — To Say Secret Service Didn’t Protect Him​

NN’s Jim Acosta claimed during his afternoon segment on Tuesday that it was “wildly irresponsible” for former President Donald Trump to accurately note that the U.S. Secret Service failed to protect him from an attempted assassination that left him with a wounded ear.

“The Biden/Harris Administration did not properly protect me, and I was forced to take a bullet for Democracy. IT WAS MY GREAT HONOR TO DO SO!” former President Donald Trump wrote Tuesday on Truth Social.

The 2024 Republican presidential nominee also pointed out shortly after U.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle resigned in disgrace that she “never gave me proper protection, so I ended up having to take a bullet for democracy.”

“When you hear the former president saying something like that, what’s your reaction?” Acosta asked his guest. “I mean, obviously, the Secret Service is a professional operation. To say something like ‘they did not protect me,’ it just sounds just wildly irresponsible.”

What is irresponsible is Acosta's claim they did protect the President. The fact is Trump was forced by SS incompetency to shed blood for the democracy Acosta claims to love so much.
 
hey! dumbass!

Wray's comments as he testified:

Speaking before the House Judiciary Committee, Wray said that “with respect to former President Trump, there’s some question about whether or not it’s a bullet or shrapnel that, you know, that hit his ear.”

In another exchange, Wray told Rep. Kevin Kiley (R-Calif.) either a bullet or a piece of shrapnel “is what grazed [Trump’s] ear.”

there's no difference between these and the official FBI (not a single person) statement.
 
there IS a difference between a complete bullet and a bullet fragment aka SHRAPNEL
 
what pisses trump and his minions off the most is that he needs to be seen as withstanding, almost like a "miracle", a speeding bullet... so the word "grazing" and the image that it may have been anything short of a whole bullet needs to be stamped on

let's face it, he could have very easily been killed by one of the 8 bullets the shooter fired. no-one is seriously contending otherwise, surely, whomever they support. trump's tantrums now are nothing more than totally transparent bloviating.

It’s ALWAYS someone else’s fault when there’s an issue that Trump could easily solve himself:

Questions about Trump’s taxes??? Yep, Trump could have simply released them - but he didn’t, because “something something IRS audit something something”.

Questions about issues in any of Trump’s trials??? - Yep, Trump could have testified - but he didn’t, because “something something gag order something something”.

Questions about the nature of his injury from the rally shooting??? Yep, Trump could have allowed the hospital or the doctors that treated him to give the ACTUAL details of the injury and what caused it - but he didn’t, because “something something Dr. Ronny "Johnson" something something”

The felon is now appearing in public without his comedy ear bandage. He has no mark at all on his ear.

In a fortnight his rifle bullet wound has completely healed, it can only be a miracle!

All true believers should now touch his right ear for eternal salvation, how much should he charge them per grab?

First we were to inject bleach… now the miracle cure is…

Unlike others here, I have zero interest in being touched by or touching the Criminal in Chief.
 

Donald Trump Seen in Public Without Ear Bandage​

The former president has ditched the gauze over his right ear which became a viral meme after the Republican National Convention.

Jackson said Trump sustained a gunshot wound to the right ear from a high-powered rifle that came "less than a quarter of an inch from entering his head and struck the top of his right ear."

The bullet track, he said, "produced a 2 cm wide wound that extended down to the cartilaginous surface of the ear. There was initially significant bleeding, followed by marked swelling of the entire upper ear."

🤔

Translation: The ear was barely nicked.

Feel your ear and check how much skin there is covering the cartilage - it’s almost nonexistent.

The malign narcissist couldn’t resist exaggerating (saying he was shot through the ear) an event that was already significant enough.

Quell surprise.

You might find a clue.

Amazing recovery powers. A 2 cm wide wound with significant bleeding, and the photo shows a normal ear. Perhaps Jackson meant a 2 mm wide wound. Someone with nearly an inch-wide wound would not likely have just a trickle of blood on his face as in the videos.

A wound that 'extends down to the cartilaginous surface of the ear' translates as he was nicked. The top of his ear was scratched, exposing the cartilage but not damaging it. So, a scratch it was then. How do we know that?

From the short time he was at the hospital and the healing time in the photo with no sign of damage. It's no wonder Trump didn't want the doctors' reports released. Sure, it hurt like a bear, but it was just a very lucky prick of the skin by comparison to a 2 cm flesh wound Johnson said was caused by the bullet. I've had the top of my ear severed, and it hurt like a bear for several months until it felt somewhat better. Trump doesn't show any sign of such an injury with significant damage.

I looked at the CNN timeline account of the incident to see how long Trump was at the hospital. I couldn't determine the actual medical treatment procedure, but I did see this timeline:

  • 6:11 pm - The video shows him reaching for his ear and ducking
  • 6:51 pm - Trump's press secretary releases a statement that he is "... fine and has been treated."
  • 8:42 pm - Truth Social Tweet by Trump, "Was shot by a bullet that pierced the upper part of my ear."
  • 8:53 pm - Motorcade leaves the hospital
The time sequence of events between getting shot and the press statement shows a forty-minute period. That includes hustling him off to the hospital and triage period.

Trump says the bullet 'pierced' his ear. Johnson, his personal doctor, says it nicked his ear. Within two hours and forty minutes or so Trump was back in his escort vehicles and gone from the hospital.

This video shows that the ear is healed. So it wasn't a 2 cm wound, nor did a bullet pierce it. Otherwise, it would still be damaged. It was, luckily, a scratch at best.
 
I don't know what to tell you liar. That lie has been debunked so many times that only a brain dead MAGA cultist would still believe it. Police trying to reason with the terrorists is not them opening doors for them.

I have said many times the police showed incredible restraint that day. There should have been 200 dead terrorists in the corridors of the Capitol if they had done their assigned job.
There is video of the Qanon Shamon very peacefully being led through the Capitol for an informal tour. The only people who were killed were killed by the police . Ashley Babbitt was shot by an African American DEI hire because she was an unarmed white woman.

An informal tour is a bad euphemism for anarchy and a breach of America's symbol of freedom and democracy. That Babbitt died was a tragedy. She didn't have to. Believing in a wannabe dictator's claim that an election was stolen caused that.

Ashley Babbitt attempted to crawl through a smashed window in the barricaded doors that were the last barrier between the Congress members and the mob. The officer, sworn to protect the Congressmen, fired one shot. The mob stopped its assault as a result.

The tragedy didn't have to happen. Babbitt, a former soldier, knew the risks, believed Trump's lies, and acted of her own volition to breach that barrier.

Your take on the event is farcical. The police officers took great restraint in not using more deadly force during that attempted coup. That day, more than misguided Ashley Babbitt died: 'good people on both sides died!'

Lie.

Ashli Babbitt was being pushed through the doors by the people behind her. She was unarmed, hand her hands out in front of her in plain sight, and the cop shot her anyway.

Here's another fact for your fake lying bullshit narrative; there was a DOCTOR on the scene who was treating Babbitt while they waited for medical personnel to arrive. He was PHYSICALLY THREATENED and forced to stop helping her by Capital police. They forced him to stand there and watch her die while they did nothing to help.

And you support the ones who did that. Which means there's a word for people like you;

Bastard.
