Finally! Delphinus Jul 24 #1

Or one of those tiny little razors, like the WWF always used so they could give the audience some blood to look at. Scrivener7 Jul 24 #2

Look at the pictures. There's no blood at all on his right hand and shirt sleeve. Its white as the pure driven snow. Solomon Jul 25 #35

His face was bloody. Or ketchuppy Bucky Jul 25 #36

Bulletgate? LOL! Leave it to Trump to Fuck Someone Trying to Assassinate Him Beetwasher. Jul 24 #3

I would actually laugh loudly if that were true... Moostache Jul 25 #51

Oh, please. Was the man killed hit by shrapnel too? brush Jul 24 #5

Are you gonna bother to read any further BootinUp Jul 24 #7

Not my version of the truth. A man was killed and others injured by bullets. brush Jul 24 #8

And others were injured by shrapnel. asm128 Jul 24 #9

Are you contending that the man killed was killed by shrapnel? brush Jul 24 #12

There were multiple shots fired by Crooks. Bucky Jul 25 #37

The man killed soandso Jul 24 #13

But that is headed to the lower ear edhopper Jul 24 #17

That is the bullet after it passed his head thatdemguy Jul 25 #53

That makes no sense either edhopper Jul 25 #55

My office? Whose office? WTH are you talking about? brush Jul 24 #26

None of which precludes the possibility that the convicted felon was hit by shrapnel. Scrivener7 Jul 24 #14

Shrapnel or not, he was still shot at. The 20-year-old somehow was able to... brush Jul 24 #16

Yes. There are many questions. Including the question of what hit him. Scrivener7 Jul 24 #19

Absolutely we need to get to the bottom of it. brush Jul 24 #25

No. I doubt that's it. Scrivener7 Jul 24 #27

and there it is: "I don't buy for a minute that that 20-year-old kid was able to do all that alone." BootinUp Jul 24 #24

Thank you. Many questions still unanswered. brush Jul 24 #28

I totally agree. Scrivener7 Jul 24 #30

I wasn't agreeing though. I was wishing people would wait for the investigation report BootinUp Jul 24 #31

It looks like they were intact Meowmee Jul 25 #39

Exactly what difference does it make. Was it less of an assassination attempt if it was only shrapnel? onenote Jul 24 #6

I won't address that issue. Nt BootinUp Jul 24 #10

Maybe it was less of an assassination attempt. Scrivener7 Jul 24 #20

And what exactly was it, pray tell? onenote Jul 24 #22

Pray tell? Scrivener7 Jul 24 #23

I thought pray tell fit well as response to someone named Scrivener onenote Jul 24 #32

It's probably not, but he wouldn't have the same empathy from people. scipan Jul 24 #29

When I saw the footage of Trump's ear, I thought Hollywood. It didn't look real. I did an internet search: SupportSanity Jul 24 #11

Please. No. . . . For your suggestion to be true, he would have to know the game in advance Stinky The Clown Jul 24 #15

In a heartbeat. Scrivener7 Jul 24 #21

Giving the secret away...... SupportSanity Jul 25 #34

Are you saying it is possible (likely?) the whole episode was faked? Stinky The Clown Jul 25 #40

I'm saying I don't know. How small a squib is possible? And does it have to be a squib? SupportSanity Jul 25 #43

Yeah, yeah, yeah. We know what squibs are. For a squib gag to work, you MUST know a gun is about to be fired. Stinky The Clown Jul 25 #50

How small a squib is available? And does it have to be a squib that is used? Is there a more modern SupportSanity Jul 25 #56

Why would he be ready with a squib (or something else) unless he knew the gunshots were coming? Stinky The Clown Jul 25 #58

Sure. SupportSanity Jul 25 #59

So the FBI didn't even get a report on his "injuries"? Autumn Jul 24 #18

It doesn't seem possible that it was a whole bullet at any rate alarimer Jul 25 #41

That Trump was injured by shrapnel and another person was killed by a bullet as well as others wounded elocs Jul 25 #42

EXACTLY! Jilly_in_VA Jul 25 #52

I understand the need to quibble, but it was still an assassination attempt. haele Jul 25 #44

Not my intention. I merely shared an FBI update. BootinUp Jul 25 #45

It's all good. I'm just a bit weary on the "dance around the room" the media is doing with Trump. haele Jul 25 #47

I still think the whole thing can be explained John Farmer Jul 25 #57

I don't see that it matters. Iggo Jul 25 #46

I say shrapnel. mucholderthandirt Jul 25 #48

How much of a miss does it take sarisataka Jul 25 #49
