Trump Shot

[hntnhole]

Interestingly, there are reports in the major media that it wasn't actually a bullet that creased OJ's ear - but a piece of shrapnel, maybe a shard of glass from a teleprompter.  

From the video we've all seen (ad nauseum) though, I wonder how a small shard of glass could get to his ear, given the placement of his punkin head at the moment.  

The Secret Service is really tight-lipped about the whole event; maybe with good reason.  Or, maybe just protocol.  In any case, sounds like a thorough house-cleaning is in the works at the S.S.

I'm starting to suspect his ear was injured when he dove/was pushed down for cover. That doesn't make it any less of an assassination attempt, but it is no where near as hyperbolic as a bullet or shrapnel wound. In fact it is pretty much the last thing he would want to admit to.

An AR bullet just grazing his ear has always sounded fishy to me. However, reputable sources have thrown cold water on the teleprompter rumor. Apparently both teleprompters were intact after shooting. FBI director Wray mentioned possible shrapnel. I know nothing about ballistics, but there’s discussion it could have been bullet fragment. Nevertheless, the incident was deplorable.

which false claims? 

It's probably easier to count the number of honest, true claims Trump makes.   As of January 2021, according to the Washington Post fact checker, Trump had made 30,573 false claims over four years. Here's just a few.

Lets not forget Defence all those who dont want Government in their lives.

And all those tax cuts (for the rich) which together with the cost of Defence, have resulted in Trillion dollar budget deficits - the most of course under Trump - to the point where the interest cost of America’s debt servicing now exceeds the cost of the Defence Budget!

Biden, Harris and the Democrats are not Socialists.  Go take a look at Sweden and Finland if you want to see socialism.
