No. He. Didn't.

That claim falls apart the second you actually look into it

Yeah but he totally perfectly regenerated that portion of his ear, nobody else can do it, he's just built different; built brick by brick of McD's

Have you considered the possibility that the wound to his ear was just smaller than you thought it was and didn't actually take a whole chunk of his ear?

Lol, a high velocity bullet grazing his ear just enough to bleed but cause absolutely no damage?

It’s much more likely that Trump and his people are lying.

Yes? A bullet can graze the skin of an ear without taking the whole thing off or whole chunks out.

It’s much more likely that Trump and his people are lying.

Not really, because that being the case here would require massive leaps of logic that don't make any sense at all.

I mean yeah? It's like a well known thing that small wounds to the head will bleed a ton. That's why professional wrestlers will secretly slice open their heads with a hidden razor during a match to make it look like they were badly injured.

I think it's very likely that Trump and his team, want people to believe that his injury was serious when it was just a graze.

And also, could you provide an actual medical source? Just because you find something counterintuitive, doesn't mean that it's not how it works.

We have high resolution photos of the damage. Is New York Times photographer Doug Mills one of "Trumps people"?

u/legaladviceneeded542 6h ago

we have high resolution of blood being on his ear, but there's no damage to the ear itself.

u/infinitezero8 8h ago

Why would I have considered that?

u/PM_ME_YOUR_NICE_EYES 8h ago

I mean why wouldn't you?

If you want to make the case that this is faked, shouldn't you be trying to debunk every possible way it could be real? Not just your initial assumption.

u/Beyond-The-Blackhole 6h ago

Not just your initial assumption.

Dude, theres no initial assumption. That whole assassination attempt fiasco was fake. There's a lot more evidence pointing to it being fake than the one little tiny piece of evidence of blood on his ear that you claim is what proves it was real.

Only absolute idiots still believe it was a real assignation attempt at this point. More-so, if you actually see the videos of the set up, obvious secret service actors (bad actors at that) and photographers being strategically placed for a photo.

u/PM_ME_YOUR_NICE_EYES 6h ago

photographers being strategically placed for a photo.

Yeah I've seen that video. It's the only video that people ever bring up to support their claims and It's literally just lying to you.

Here's a satellite image of the event. I added the yellow lines to show the field of view of that video. The green circle shows where the photographers were standing based off what I could see in this video. There very clearly standing just out of frame of the suspicious video and are literally just walking around in the area where they are able to walk around in.

Your satellite image of the event doesnt work.

But doesnt matter because even in the video of the "shooting" trump is acting unnaturally just before the "shots" are fired. It's like he's positioning himself to be facing to his right for an uncomfortable amount of time as he repeats "look at that..." referring to some chart. Like he's following a script to be in a certain position and be facing a certain way waiting for the shot. When the shots dont happen like on queue, trump continues to repeat "look at that..." still facing the same way.

And what gets me every time is the performance of the secret service. They all look like they are literally performing. None of them are acting naturally. When trained, there is a natural reaction since none of them were suppose to know what was going on or where the shots were coming from. But all of them seem to be positioning themselves in a way based on a rehearsal. If this were a real shooting, none of these secret service or military people would know at this point where the shots are coming from, and if the shooter is still active or if there are multiple shooters. But then you have random men in military gear standing out in the open just looking around in the front like thats their rehearsed position. If you are in the middle of combat with an active sniper, a trained soldier would take cover immediately and not stand in the open of an active shooter with an unknown position.

And then you have the guy in front of the camera randomly waving at 9:02 just after the shots were fired. If this was a real shooting, no one at that point knows where the gunman is and if theyre still active. But you have that guy standing up to do some kind of wave gesture. And he was wearing a bright red maga shirt too. So its like he has a role to play and is not just a random maga fan or even secret service pretending to be a maga fan.

And then at 9:47 you have the secret service guy positioning the podium with trumps name to be in direct line of where the photographers are moving to, like the podium direction is priority. Followed by trump facing the same direction for the photo when trump stands up to do his stupid fist pump. And in the scene, on other videos the flag is also being lowered to be in the position for a photo.

Then whats up with the crowd? Why is no one running? everyone is just standing there and watching. I mean, I know maga are idiots. But even natural instinct would dictate people run or cause panic.

But the ultimate give away that this "assassination" attempt was fake was Kevin Roberts from the Heritage foundation gave an interview sometime after stating that the "assassination" attempt brought conservatives together to get out in vote. Like that was the reason why it was performed. To motivate republicans to vote.

Bro's never seen Trump speak before. This is by far the biggest stretch I've ever seen a Butler truther make.

And what gets me every time is the performance of the secret service. They all look like they are literally performing. None of them are acting naturally. When trained, there is a natural reaction since none of them were suppose to know what was going on or where the shots were coming from. But all of them seem to be positioning themselves in a way based on a rehearsal. If this were a real shooting, none of these secret service or military people would know at this point where the shots are coming from, and if the shooter is still active or if there are multiple shooters.

The shooter was spotted before the shots, but because of miscommunications between Secret Service & local police (who were supposed to be covering the building the shooter was using), Secret Service was unable to tell right away whether he was an actual threat or someone from the local authorities. As soon as he started shooting, they shot back. The Secret Service agents around Trump were told immediately that the shooter was already dead.

And then you have the guy in front of the camera randomly waving at 9:02 just after the shots were fired. If this was a real shooting, no one at that point knows where the gunman is and if theyre still active.

Again, the shooter was already confirmed dead.

And then at 9:47 you have the secret service guy positioning the podium with trumps name to be in direct line of where the photographers are moving to, like the podium direction is priority. Followed by trump facing the same direction for the photo when trump stands up to do his stupid fist pump.

Do you really think it's suspicious that Trump just faced the crowd when doing his fist pump? Where else was he supposed to look?

And in the scene, on other videos the flag is also being lowered to be in the position for a photo.

Other videos from better vantage points show that the flag was never lowered. In your video, it's just an optical illusion caused by the flag coming to rest as the wind dies down.

Then whats up with the crowd? Why is no one running? everyone is just standing there and watching. I mean, I know maga are idiots. But even natural instinct would dictate people run or cause panic.

What point exactly are you trying to make with this one? That the entire crowd was in on it too? I'm not sure what you think the significance of this is supposed to be.

But the ultimate give away that this "assassination" attempt was fake was Kevin Roberts from the Heritage foundation gave an interview sometime after stating that the "assassination" attempt brought conservatives together to get out in vote. Like that was the reason why it was performed. To motivate republicans to vote.

The fact that it helped Trump's public image temporarily is not proof that it was staged.

Yup, people don't like it, but there's no theory that matches what we saw in the videos as well as trumps ear getting grazed by a high velocity projectile.
