    The ear 👂 tampon made him look weak and reminded everyone that he lies about everything.

    Magically, zero damage to a “shot” ear 2 weeks later. Sure, Trump 😆🤣🤡

      He was shot with an AR-15 (assuming it was the bullet and not shrapnel).

      Those make an entry wound smaller than a hole punch (5.56mm vs. 7.9mm). I mean, a 5.56 is 3/1000ths of an inch smaller than a .22. (Close enough for you guns nerds.) Point being, for those that don’t know, the bullet is tiny, it’s the speed that counts.

      So no, I wouldn’t expect to see much after a couple of weeks of healing and careful cleaning. But that pic where the only red spot is so high and close? Either the bullet was extraordinarily close, or he got hit with shrapnel.

        You have no clue what you’re talking about. An AR round will put a clean hole through steel, buddy.

        You’ll never ever see it put a clean hole thru flesh.

        Stop lying.

        Everything above your earlobe is made of cartilage, and that takes a significantly longer time period to heal compared to flesh. Just ask anyone who’s had their lobe pierced vs a tragus or helix which one healed faster.

        Also, assuming anything you said about the ballistics of a .556 round are true, it’s irrelevant because the AP has photos of his ear and there’s no puncture wounds, hole-punch sized or other. If he was hit by the bullet and not just shrapnel, it was a grazing shot and (for my money, seeing as how he’s an old obese man) it’s likely he’s on warfarin or some other blood-thinner/anti-coagulant which made his wound bleed more than it otherwise would have.
