Yea, but I don't think this is worth an article - it might be illuminative to secret service tactics or inform how campaign stands should be constructed but Trump was injured as a result of a gun shot. The article posing this question was probably completely unnecessary and was absolutely needlessly sensationalized.
I think it's worthy of an article because I remember hearing initially, right after the shooting, that it wasn't quite known if he was actually hit by a bullet or shrapnel. This tells me this is still the case and there hasn't been a definitive answer given.
I wonder if the doctors who treated him know? Is it possible to determine based on the injury if it was a bullet vs shrapnel?
There's video footage and a known location of the spot the guy shot from.
All this hesitation is telling me is that it's confirmed it was not a bullet but Trump likes saying it is and they don't feel like pushing against it.
As far as I can tell from the video there's not a moment where a bullet coming from his far right (heh) could have grazed his ear (that's particoularly close to his skull) without piercing his skull. He never turns that much to the right.
I don't think so, unless they found a piece of glass in his ear. Word on the street is a teleprompter, but I don't know if there's even any evidence of that. Or of anything else being hit and becoming shrapnel. That would really be the way to tell.
Ya save it for the documentary or deep dive into the whole shebang
