    I don’t think anyone honestly believes he was shot.

    His ear would be fucking gone.

    He got it scratched and as unhealthy and old as he is, he has to be on blood thinners. A small scratch blleds like crazy, and the majority of his voters are probably on blood thinners so they know

          I’m aware of that Rule but in this case there’s actual research showing that this is disinformation being intentionally pushed by known bad actors.

          I’ll remove the offending 2nd sentence but it doesn’t change anything.

          Downvoted for referencing the community rules? This community is fucked. Truly fucked. I’ve already unsubscribed, but this is forcing my hand to outright block this shit hole.

      This is just nitpicking. Being barely grazed still falls under the overarching umbrella of “gunshot wound”, even if it doesn’t conjure the same mental image as we’d normally have.

      If a soldier on a battlefield gets barely nicked and goes “I think I got shot!” nobody is going to argue about the details.

      I thought it was confirmed he was only grazed by a glass shard from a teleprompter, not the actual bullet?
