33% Biden Supporters Think Shooting Might Have Been Staged

My bet is the attack was real, but I'm not convinced he was actually hit by a bullet.

That's my bet too. The attack was real (although Crooks would have just as happily shot at Biden whose rally schedule he also Googled if Biden had been at that same venue), and Trump was likely hit by flying debris (just as the four officer who were standing near him were).

Sitz, serious question: I'm not an expert on bullet trajectory, but does the angle of that bullet from Trump's ear indicate that it would have hit the upper part of said ear?:

This photo was taken by a NY Times photographer using 8000 speed film. It was discovered by his editor later. It proves he was hit by a bullet.

The angle seems off to me, but like I said I'm not an expert. If the bullet had grazed the upper part of his ear, would it be seen exiting at that angle and in a fairly straight line?

No, without a medical report or a police report of any kind, it's not petty politics to question if Trump was grazed by a bullet or hit by flying debris just as the cops who were near him were:

UPDATE 4:50 p.m. Sunday

11 Investigates has learned that four Pittsburgh police officers assigned to the former president's motorcade yesterday suffered minor injuries during the shooting.

The four motorcycle officers were part of Donald Trump's escort to and from the rally in Butler.

Sources tell Chief Investigator Rick Earle the officers were just feet away from Trump when shots rang out. The four officers suffered minor injuries from flying debris caused by the bullets.

Sources say the officers were hit with either plastic or metal fragments when the bullets struck objects nearby.

They were treated at the scene. They were okay to escort Trump back to the airport in Pittsburgh last night after he was treated at Butler Memorial Hospital.

Trust but verify, but in this case I don't trust Trump. He is a pathological liar, and in his mind it probaby makes for a more compelling story if he was grazed by the bullet than hit by flying debris. If he was crazed by a bullet, okay. Republicans are still claiming, however, that the shooter was out to kill Trump because of Democrats' rhetoric against him, and so far at least there isn't evidence of that either. In fact what little evidence has come out indicates Crooks searched on both Biden and Trump's rally schedules, and had photos of Biden, Trump, Merritt Garland and Christopher Wray on his phone, so it doesn't look right now that he was looking to target only Trump and/or Republicans.

"Could it be debris that hit him? I think so - however if it was the teleprompter screen that should be obvious. The teleprompter screen would be obliterated. I haven't looked for that in the "after" pics. That'd be interesting to see."

People claim the teleprompters were intact. I've even seen reports that they are designed to be shatterproof. Again, okay, but what caused the flying debris that injured those officers? Maybe they came from the podium and hit those officers but not Trump himself. Could be. Or maybe they weren't injured at all and that report is bogus? IMO, more information is needed.

But either way, the shooter's actions cause the death of one person, put two others in the hospital, and resulted in Trump's ear being cut.
