Dr. Sanjay Gupta: There are still key questions about Trump's injuries after attempted assassination
Source: CNN
t has been nearly a week since gunfire erupted at Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, resulting in an injury to the former president, the death of one attendee, Corey Comperatore, and severe injuries to two others.
And although the images we’ve seen of Trump since his attempted assassination have been those of a person who was barely injured and is now in high spirits, what we’ve been told by the campaign offers very little insight into the former president’s condition, what kind of care he received or how his medical team will monitor him in the days and weeks ahead.
A full public assessment of Trump’s injuries is necessary, for both the former president’s own health and the clarity it can provide for voters about the recovery of the man who could become president of the United States once again. The concern is that gunshot blasts near the head can cause injuries that aren’t immediately noticeable, such as bleeding in or on the brain, damage to the inner ear or even psychological trauma. As a trauma neurosurgeon, I have seen how a thorough evaluation after any kind of gunshot wound can provide a complete picture and lead to a speedier recovery.

At long last, CNN has decided to have a valid article.
Read certain facts in the article.
"But it is still surprising that we have not heard more about the exact diagnosis and care of what may have been a catastrophic injury. And, while all the attention has been on his ear and right side of his head, that doesn’t mean other injuries may not be present. It’s not even clear that he was struck by a primary projectile from the rifle, a secondary projectile or a combination of both. Sometimes, it can be difficult to know without an in-depth evaluation."
"a fracture to the thin bone in that region of the skull, an epidural hematoma (or bleeding between the skull and the brain) and damage to the bones of the inner ear, which can result in hearing loss, vertigo or dizziness.
A CT scan can usually detect such injuries, but they aren’t always immediately apparent. As a result, sometimes patients are observed in the hospital and may even undergo a repeat CT scan.
The stress from a shooting can also have psychological effects."
They are not forthcoming. I tell you.

It took Our Lord 3 days to come back from the dead, but Chump did it in about 30 seconds.
You already decided it was either like a head on shot to a watermelon or a teleprompter shard because his head didn't explode like a watermelon explodes from a direct hit. You wrote 'I'm in the "nicked by a piece of the teleprompter" camp' and post a watermelon head on shot as if to prove it wasn't a bullet.
You ignore abundant evidence that it was NOT a teleprompter shard.
