That is because DENVERPOPS Aug 2024 #72

Yes, that is my theory obamanut2012 Aug 2024 #3

The possibility of striking just a tip of the ear seems infinitesimal. StClone Aug 2024 #5

He still would have had, at best, some other issues obamanut2012 Aug 2024 #48

Disagree, MarineCombatEngineer Aug 2024 #74

I used to scrub for an otolaryngologist (ENT) (ear, nose and throat) surgeon. No way a ear wound would heal...... usaf-vet Aug 2024 #105

Thank you, and I couldn't have said it better. MarineCombatEngineer Aug 2024 #39

could you have spelled "pissing" correctly? FHRRK Aug 2024 #40

I've seen close ups of his ear angrychair Aug 2024 #41

Yeah, just keep spreading those conspiracy theories, that must be a key component of the campaign. MarineCombatEngineer Aug 2024 #42

I'll move on angrychair Aug 2024 #44

How many actual bullet wounds have you actually seen and dealt with? MarineCombatEngineer Aug 2024 #46

Not a conspiracy theory angrychair Aug 2024 #59

As I said, MarineCombatEngineer Aug 2024 #63

Where have you seen closeups of his ear? Do you have a link? Not doubting. Just curious. nt LAS14 Aug 2024 #95

You are stating as fact, something you cannot prove and that no one else has proven. IMHO NoSheep Aug 2024 #55

No, I'm stating a fact from my long experience from actual bullet wounds. MarineCombatEngineer Aug 2024 #58

Is there the tiniest shred of evidence sarisataka Aug 2024 #68

Thanks for this! ShazzieB Aug 2024 #80

And, yet again MCE DENVERPOPS Aug 2024 #82

agree, I don't find the blood curious but the shoes? Did he take them off? Why was he so insistent to put them back on? Hamlette Aug 2024 #91

Wouldn't the agents surrounding Trump also have blood spatter? LeftInTX Aug 2024 #19

Try this StClone Aug 2024 #21

sigh... this again. WarGamer Aug 2024 #22

Could you post a link where this was discussed? StClone Aug 2024 #28

This was discussed ad nauseum for a week... dozens of DU threads. WarGamer Aug 2024 #30

You are correct there were posts on "being hit with projected material." StClone Aug 2024 #38

A supersonic bullet passing that close to his ear would have done a number on his eardrum IMHO. rzemanfl Aug 2024 #31

It would only cause minor ringing IME sarisataka Aug 2024 #45

You had a supersonic bullet pass within a couple of inches of your ear? rzemanfl Aug 2024 #73

Hospital and ER plan every time? Hela Aug 2024 #43

He did react to something hitting his ear senseandsensibility Aug 2024 #50

I'm sure of this. The bullet did not hit his ear. I've had a very good ear injury, and they do not heal in a few days ashredux Aug 2024 #52
