Inquiring minds want to know.
I thought it was shrapnel until I saw this pic. Dude is truly unbelievably fucking lucky https://web.archive.org/web/20240714051956/https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/14/us/politics/photo-path-trump-assassination.html
There are an infinite number of universes where Trump got domed and we live in the only one where the bullet grazed his ear
Looks to me like the path in the image is heading just below his earlobe, so it wasn’t the bullet that hit him in the top of his ear. There’s no way he jerked his head up by more than the height of his ear in the time between it hitting him and the photo being taken.
At most it shows one of the multiple shots was very close to hitting him, if it’s real. So the hit could still be shrapnel/glass from that shot or another
his ear just did that
he can’t admit it was teleprompter glass or he’ll look weak
Yeah, I’ve considered that too.
Definitely was a bullet and not teleprompter glass.
No wonder evangelicals are going bonkers over this.
In a way I feel bad for them, the biggest reason that evangelicals are unreachable is because of how consistently the media and the state piss in their mouth and tell them it’s Gatorade. Of course they do that to everyone, but evangelicals have their own alternate reality they can retreat into where they can feel a sense of control, so why would they ever try looking at things from outside that perspective? The liberal apparatus is actively creating the conditions that give rise to the social utility of christofascistm.
I suspect secret service has to say it was Glass/protective shield did it’s job regardless of the truth, so as not to admit flaw in their security apparatus, whereas trump of course has to claim it was a bullet for obvious coolness factor reasons
No bullets ever came close to the president. We had the situation under control.
It came straight at my head but I dodged it. Tremendous reflexes!Exactly. Feels like one those things where neither narrative will ever be fully dispelled
rumors of teleprompter glass but i think it was a realdeal fuckin bullet
My brother said the teleprompter was on the other side of his head, but I think there was probably a second one out of frame because it’s common to have two.
There are two in the picture mkultrawide posted and neither of them look damaged
