    Simple question and a statement, followed by a tweet.


    Yes, or no?


    Supposedly this picture was taken shortly after the shooting.

    "All these years later...still missing..."

    Does this guy think Evander Holyfield is a starfish?

    The habitual liar is like the boy who cried wolf.

    Now you can't believe a word he says.

    Add to that he'll do anything for power like the big lie and inciting Jan 6 violence and it's not stretch to believe noting is off the table

    Unfortunately people died and were injured due to this grifters attempt to garner sympathy.

    100% Fake

    Maybe Trump has starfish genes. Have you ever thought of that?

    Go ask Corey Comperatore if he thinks the assassination attempt was fake.

    Not faked, but maybe exaggerated. He was pretty guarded about the specifics of his injury, probably because people woukd make fun of how light it was. Still, a couple inches and he'd have been dead.

    I agree with this. I think this was a real assasination attempt and I think the shooter was the one named. I have a hard time seeming a faked assasination attempt where someone in the audience died and others wounded.

    I do think the injury was not that severe and Trump did play it up for more than it was.

    It was a real assassination attempt - and it was a big deal.

    Did Trump exaggerate the degree of his injuries? Maybe - but he did have someone shoot at him, and he would have been dead had he been an inch to the right.

    Some things transcend politics - I am just grateful that we didn't have to see someone running for the highest office, a former President - have their head explode in front of the whole world.

    What happened to John F Kennedy was horrendous, and had a long term impact on the USA -

    Have you ever cut your ear?

    It bleeds like a mother ****er. It's highly vascularized.

    You don't have to get the damn thing blown off to look like a murder scene.

    Nothing about what happened to Trump was questionable or lacking legitimacy.

    Was it real, absolutely
    Did trump make it seem worse than it was, absolutely would believe this given his history.

    I am just glad it didn't do any real damage; I hate the man with a passion but would not want that to happen to anyone let alone the gop candidate, the ramifications would have been catastrophic

    Political violence isn't a reasonable solution to anything. Someone legitimately tried to shoot and kill Trump. He was wounded, and thankfully not killed. He didn't fake that someone tried to kill him. He might have faked the severity of his injury, but that isn't really that important one way or the other.
