Everybody Loves a Good Conspiracy
-
I'm generally comfortable taking the mainstream view of most "controversial" topics where conspiracy theorizing abounds. One exception that comes to mind is COVID lab leak, which, according to the mainstream, is a conspiracy theory (see its wiki article), but which I'm confident has real evidence to support it. Not to the level of proof, but certainly reaches the level of doubt of zoonotic origin.
Also it's obvious nonsense that the earth is round.

Am confident that Crooks attempted to assassinate Trump and acted entirely alone and under the radar until he pulled the trigger. At the same time however it’s not a recent event I am all that interested in pursuing further.
The only thing that has struck me about the incident is how quiet the mainstream is about Crooks, his family and their life now. I recall how Marina Oswald figured prominently in the press for years following JFK’s assassination. Even Squeaky Fromm and Hinckley had more press following their attempts. Crooks and his family however have just seemed to fade away into obscurity. Perhaps that’s how it should be, I don’t know.
Elbows up!

He's right. It's an oblate spheroid.

I wonder how much of that is just because he was shot dead? No trial, no statements to the press, no scenes of his mother pleading for mercy, etc.

As a professional viewer of Internet videos, I can tell you it was not staged, trumps reaction was too realistic and authentic. That being said, I’m pretty confident the bullet didn’t actually strike his ear. The blood was from an impact with secret service during the tackling .
Why are you confident about that?

Mostly because you can see when his ear strikes an officer's gun/holster (IIRC) plus soon after his ear has no visible damage from it, which is remarkable if it had been shot (even nicked enough to bleed all over like that). He also holds his ear at first then moves his hand which had no blood on it but perhaps the blood didn't have time to start flowing yet, which I can see. Plus honestly, Trump likes saying "I was shot".
All of that being said, it is incredible that had Trump not turned his head in that split second, we would've had a 4K assassination on video.

Still confused. Why would you think he almost got shot in the head, if you don't think he was shot in the ear? If he didn't get shot in the ear, then there's no reason to think a head turn would have made a difference. Anyway, not to be pedantic. It's the first theory I've heard against him getting shot in the ear.

Are you pulling my leg at this point? You can hear the shots, you can see the bullet (if that photo is true), people in that line of fire were shot in the crowd. I don't doubt the shooter was a loon, or that the shooting happened, just I don't think the bullet really hit his ear and caused the bleeding.

No I’m not pulling your leg. You think the bullet was so close to his head that a head turn saved his life. You are theorizing a bullet within a couple inch window next to his ear and yet you’re confident that the ear wound was from contact with the secret service. You have no reason to believe the bullet was so close to his head other than the ear wound. Without the ear wound we can only say he was in the line of fire just like everybody standing around him. Just like the guy who actually died 20 feet away. It would never occur to you that a head turn saved him. That seems obvious and unarguable. Without the ear wound you wouldn’t think a head turn saved him. Yet you don’t think the ear wound had anything to do with the bullet. The two beliefs are incompatible. From your perspective you have no reason to believe a head turn saved him.

I see what you're saying but no, you can hear the bullet (I think?) whizz by. You also see Trump react by reaching up and grabbing his ear after something buzzed by at a million MPH. Again there is the photo of the bullet in mid-air too. I think he turned his head, felt/heard the bullet zip by, maybe it even hit a hair on the edge of his ear! But I don't think his ear was shot for the reasons laid out earlier. Maybe we need ABS #baseball.
