“Where are the stitches,” Uproar as Ex-Trump Aide Demands Medical Report Of The Shooting Incident
Former RNC Chair Michael Steele has sparked a fierce debate on social media by suggesting that there may be a cover-up surrounding the recent shooting incident involving former President Donald Trump.
During an interview with MSNBC on Wednesday, July 17, Steele voiced his concerns, calling for more transparency about the incident and its aftermath. Steele stated that it had been four days since the horrific event occurred, during which a person lost their life and was severely injured.
However, they had not received a medical report from the hospital, the campaign, or the Trump Organization about the extent of the damage to the individual’s ear. Steele further speculated that if indeed Trump was shot by a high-caliber bullet, there would likely be very little ear remaining, raising questions about whether cosmetic surgery was involved.
Steele also inquired about the prognosis for recovery, the location of stitches, and the extent and nature of the damage to the ear, questioning whether it was caused by a bullet as opposed to some contradicting reports from those on the scene.
The former RNC Chair’s comments have ignited a firestorm on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), where users have weighed in with their own opinions and criticisms.
One user suggested legal action against Steele: “The family of the man who was killed by the bullet that grazed Trump should sue Michael Steele for a billion dollars and anyone else who questions the official narrative.”
Another user pointed out the specifics of the firearm allegedly used in the incident: “An AR-15 doesn’t use a ‘high caliber bullet,’ it uses a high-velocity low caliber 223 round.” A third user criticized Steele’s understanding of firearms: “Clearly Steele has never seen the type of ammo used for the AR 556. The bullet is small. He must never have heard of a grazing wound either.”
Yet another commenter argued for Trump’s privacy: “First off, Donald Trump is currently a private citizen, therefore his medical treatment of this or anything else is his private business.” The call for a medical report and further details from Steele reflects broader concerns and conspiracy theories that have swirled around Trump’s public life.
However, without official statements or detailed medical reports, the exact nature of the incident remains speculative. The situation has left many demanding answers while others staunchly defend the former president’s right to medical privacy.
As the debate continues to rage online, the public awaits more information to clarify the circumstances surrounding the shooting and the extent of Trump’s injuries.
