Okay. I think we now know this specific part of the story. Trumps ear was lightly injured in the shooting. Police told reporters he was hit by flying debris. Trump went on Truth Social and declared he was hit by a bullet. And basically all major media went with that as a fact.
FBI Director Wray on Trump's injury from the assassination attempt:
“There’s some question about whether or not it’s a bullet or shrapnel that hit his ear.”
President Biden: I have decided the best way forward is to pass the torch to a new generation. There is a time and place for long years of experience in public life. But there is also a time and place for new voices, fresh voices, and yes, younger voices. And that time and place is now
I have been privileged to serve this nation for over 50 years.
I have given my heart and my soul, like so many others have.
And I have been blessed a million times in return with the love and support of the American people.
I hope you know how grateful I am to all of you.
To those who never wavered, to those who refused to doubt, to those who always believed, my heart is full of gratitude.
Thank you for the trust you put in Joe—now it’s time to put that trust in Kamala.
Love,
Jill
We are sending 200.00 to Kamala for our children, your children, our grandchildren, your grandchildren and to all others that understands we must save our nation from a dictatorship!
You have to love the outrage the Rs are expressing that @JoeBiden, who they've pummeled relentlessly for years, has pulled the chair our from under them...and that they call his decision to step aside a "coup."
Just to refresh, coups are when leaders try, through force and chicanery, to overturn the outcome of free and fair elections.
Today, not only am I fired up to endorse @KamalaHarris for President of the United States, I’m proud to serve as a co-chair of her campaign.
In Vice President Harris, Michigan voters have a candidate they can count on to lower their costs, protect their freedoms, and build an economy that works for working people. Donald Trump is a convicted felon who stokes violence, overturned Roe, and drove our economy into the ground. We cannot let him anywhere near the White House.
Vice President Harris, you have my full support. Let’s win this.
Something that doesn’t get talked about enough is that Sinema and Manchin are retiring from the Senate.
That means if Dems win Congress and the Presidency we can reform the filibuster and actually do things like codifying Roe and passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Act!
Kamala Harris is a prosecutor.
Donald Trump is a criminal.
Kamala Harris is a woman.
Donald Trump is a misogynist who openly brags about taking away women’s rights.
Kamala Harris is black.
Donald Trump is a race baiting bigot.
It’s as if Justice and Karma teamed up to choose the fighter to take him down once and for all.
