No, the question is not whether he was shot at, or if he has a wound. The question is was his wound caused by a bullet or glass shrapnel.
Are there any actual pictures of the wound? Closest I've seen is an ear with blood on it, but none that show actual tissue damage.
[Tinfoil hat]As performative as the first pump n' shit was, and as utterly devoid of morality as Trump is, I wouldn't be surprised at all if the assassination attempt was some sketchy shit like the gunman being paid to pop a few shots at a couple expendable cultists behind Trump, so that Trump could dive behind the podium where none of the cameras were pointed, pull a packet of red shit from his pocket and smash it onto his ear, then raise into his cheesey fucking first pump stance in the middle of a bunch of panicked security guards. ...and backstab whatever deal was initially made with the gunman by just killing that loose end on the spot.[/Tinfoil hat]
^Theory completely debunked if anyone's got a pic from that event that shows an actual chunk missing from his ear. A few folks have mentioned some of the articles included such pics, but so far I've come up empty - just pics of a 'blood'y ear at the event, and a bandaged ear after.
My theory is that [Tinfoil hat] there was a ketchup packet lodged in the rolls of his neck from lunch that day, and it popped when he was startled by the gunshots. He was unaware that he lost the condiment there, and it was unintentional. He genuinely thought it was blood until it trickled into his mouth, after which he raised his fist in relief, yelling “Heinz Heinz Heinz” to the crowd. [/Tinfoil hat]
He would have yelled Heinz repeatedly at the audience anyway.
Heinz Shitler
Add it to that list if nicknames.
