The teleprompter is clearly standing and looks undamaged lame54 Jul 2024 #2
Could the glass have come from elsewhere? Trump's ear looks barely nicked. PeaceWave Jul 2024 #47
If it had hit the teleprompter wouldn't the sound of the collision have been captured in the audio? diva77 Jul 2024 #72

What do you think it means? Blue Cape Jul 2024 #16
Yep. It's obvious. Iwasthere Jul 2024 #32

Looks like hair stuck to an open wound. egduj Jul 2024 #29
In the vicinity of the arrow's tip I see skin, blood, hair, and cartilage RockRaven Jul 2024 #31
it doesn't change much of anything if the actual damage was caused by a bullet or the glass unblock Jul 2024 #33
Some people seem real invested in it not being a bullet EX500rider Jul 2024 #37
Well, if an expert like "Allan dos Panos" says so... AZSkiffyGeek Jul 2024 #40

Please notice that the trajectory does not line up with the top of his ear. niyad Jul 2024 #55
More than one bullet was fired. Ms. Toad Jul 2024 #75
The implication of posting that image is just that. niyad Jul 2024 #95
Possibly, but I was addressing your observation that the trajectory didn't line up - Ms. Toad Jul 2024 #97

Just stop w/ the CT. The teleprompters were not shattered, and the pic shows exposed cartilage, not glass Celerity Jul 2024 #44
Thank you for a clear photo, Celerity. crickets Jul 2024 #67
tug and touch that part of your own ear, it is not bone nor is it glass, lolol Celerity Jul 2024 #68
