Dear Blind Man Ronny -

Go fuck yourself.

My long and storied experience with people talking out of their ass says you have a big brown smear from ear to ear. Thankfully as a House Rep you have a short expiration date. May the good people of your district soon realize their mistake, and correct the matter of you being an elected federal official.

Thank you

[Dr. Ken]

Mr brolin explained this - twice. Go read those posts, he did a very competent job of explanation.

Yes, he did. And that other angle from behind shows the ear shell is intact.

It's a MIRACLE!!!

It's embarrassing. If he shuts up about it, I'll forget it too.He'll have a fresh drahmah fast enough. He ain't boring, but he's attractive like manure.

Years from now, we'll all be recalling how he stormed the beach at Pittsburgh under a hail of fire to raise the flag.

And liberate the airports like George Washington.

Trump claims he heard the bullet "wizz" past his ear. This in itself tells me that he was not struck by a bullet. Bullets do not make a wizzing sound. They are flying at supersonic speed. Bullets flying at supersonic speed make a "crack" or "snap" sound. Ask any Vietnam infantryman. They would hear the snap of the bullet before they would hear the report of the rifle.

I have been in combat and my experience is similar to what Zeke has described. When being shot around you will hear a "whiz" sound, but when you hear such you are not directly under fire, rounds are just flying around you. When you are shot at you will know, by the distinctive sound of a split second hiss immediately by a loud, sharp, deafening crack, that will damn well leave a ringing in your ear.

Ah, the sounds of the gold old, bad old days and the "crack"....."thump" as the round zipped past followed by the sound of the discharge wafting past

I find it interesting that the press are jumping on "The FBI dude is now saying he WAS hit by a bullet" which isn't actually what was said, what it was, was a well caveated statement that it could have been a bullet or a fragment which is a reiteration of Director Wrays statement “My understanding is that either it or some shrapnel is what, you know, grazed his ear.”

The real question is, even if the round had hit and purr'ed the lump of Gorgonzola that he uses for a brain..... Would anyone have been able to notice a difference?

[Suranis]

The Press probably needs it to be a bullet because it adds onto "the legend" of the Turnip.

The location on top that is white-ish looks to me like the point where the earlobe got nicked.. Seem to match with the location I pointed to on the bloddied ear photo. Let Mike donate another MyPillow to soothe the damaged feeliings of #45.

It makes him sound like more of a he-man if he got hit by an actual bullet than what seems to be the truth. He most likely got hit by shrapnel. That damage is way too insignificant to be an actual bullet wound.

[neonzx]

Ya know... I recall when Reagan was shot (way more serious than a minor nick on the ear). As he recovered, he did not make it political. He rarely spoke of it at all.

Don't get me wrong, Reagan was still awful. But not Trump awful.

As I said, I've had worse black fly bites.

WASHINGTON, July 27 (Reuters) - Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said on Saturday he would continue to hold outdoor rallies, disregarding a recommendation from the U.S. Secret Service not to do so following an assassination attempt earlier this month.

"I WILL CONTINUE TO DO OUTDOOR RALLIES, AND SECRET SERVICE HAS AGREED TO SUBSTANTIALLY STEP UP THEIR OPERATION," the former president wrote on his Truth Social site. "THEY ARE VERY CAPABLE OF DOING SO. NO ONE CAN EVER BE ALLOWED TO STOP OR IMPEDE FREE SPEECH OR GATHERING!!!"

"I WILL CONTINUE TO DO OUTDOOR RALLIES,

Translation: I don't want to spend MY MONEY on indoor venues where I cannot fabricate crowd size.

Good for Donald and his fans!

By the way, it’s currently 90° in Minneapolis with a dew point of 68°. Nothing like a hot, sweaty mob collapsing from heat stroke. And Donny will be up front, blathering away, while wearing an ill-fitting dark suit with a long sleeve shirt.

:yeah: How many indoor venues will even let him in without payment in advance?

Let's forget all about my supporter who was murdered! Anyone else want to sacrifice themselves for ME?

Well, yanno, the SS is there for ME, not the minions, and I'm not dead, so what's your point?

It was God who kept the bullet from crashing into his skull. Unfortunately, God apparently cannot multitask.

He definitely didn't get hit by the truth.

Trump will be indoors this evening in St. Cloud, MN. His rally is being held at a hockey arena which holds about 5,200.

Which means he will have a crowd of 27,000 in there listening to him.
