That shot was awfully close. They'd have to have a lot of faith in the shooter's marksmanship.
The likelihood that a bullet was anywhere near his ear is remote. The views that show it are from a misleading perspective.
Was it?
Was the ear bandaid even real?
That shot is impossible to do reliably. Even the best marksman would be risking hitting Trump in the head. Literally, if Trump had not turned his head, the back of his skull would have been hit. We are talking a bolt action with match grade ammo, ballistic calculations, Trump turning his head at the perfect moment to just clip his ear, and enough luck to win the lottery with one ticket and consecutive numbers.
If they wanted to fake an assassination attempt, they would shoot him in the belly transverse with a low velocity 5.56.
There is insufficient evidence to suggest that his turning his head was at all relevant. It's unlikely that he was directly hit, due to both the lack of any visible scarring of any kind and the suppression of all medical evidence that would readily prove it. If there were proof, the compulsive liar would almost definitely leverage it.
it was a glass shard not a bullet, clean cut no scar, not a furrow
gullible idiots
