Medical records please and close up photos of the "wound". I don't believe con man trump.
TMZ dropped a pic with his bandage removed.
His doctor said that “chunks” were ripped off. His ear looked completely healed- and cartilage doesn’t regrow so that would have to have been reconstructive surgery.
I’m guessing if it wasn’t some one with a razor cutting for drama… it was a very mild graze.
All that is assuming TMZ is more or less legit. (Ie the photo isn’t doctored before the rag bought rights to it)
Combine with the fact that old people are generally a bit more frail and slower to heal than those that are much younger. Especially when they’re not exactly fit either with a horrendous diet.
He said he healed like the day after and the doctor said it was a miracle.
What’s that smell? Bullshiiiiiiiiiiiiiit
I just saw a clips of him at a rally from a day or two ago, with no ear bandage, and his ear appeared fine.
Which would be miraculous rates of healing.
Even if it was just a shard of glass; there would still be some visible scarring. Also, I’ve see ears get chunks torn out, there’s a lot more blood.
I just checked out notes on “ear lobe repair” surgery, talking about tears, saying stitches are in for a week with a red scare while healing.
There’s no way that ear was torn and missing “chunks”. (Shocker…. Trump lied….)
I have to imagine that Trump has plastic surgeons on standby at all times (he already walks around looking like he's stuffed with more gauze than a taxidermied sow), so if there was any structural damage, they likely repaired it with a prosthetic.
Donald Trump is wayyyyy too ugly to have plastic surgeons on standby. That face is McDonalds & KFC.
Sorry, all you get is images of a maxi pad to indicate enormous damage for what was likely a graze.
An attempt on a former president's life is a big deal, whether I think he's a human dumpster fire or not.
However, the way he played this up was and is ridiculous. He didn't need to prove anything. Someone shot at him and that's not in doubt. Instead he chose to milk it and I personally find that ludicrous given the circumstances.
The ear wound is in the thumbnail, no? I’m seeing a small semicircle along the outer top part of his ear.
