Team Trump pushes back against FBI's Wray on assassination attempt
When it comes to Donald Trump's shooting injury, his team is trying to push back against FBI Director Chris Wray. It's not going especially well.

The trouble began when Wray testified that there’s some uncertainty surrounding the precise nature of Donald Trump’s injury from the recent assassination attempt in Pennsylvania. “I think with respect to former President Trump, there’s some question about whether or not it’s a bullet or shrapnel that hit his ear,” the FBI director told lawmakers......
An Associated Press report noted last week that the public was “still in the dark over the extent of his injuries, what treatment the Republican presidential nominee received in the hospital, and whether there may be any long-term effects on his health. Trump’s campaign has refused to discuss his condition, release a medical report or records, or make the doctors who treated him available, leaving information to dribble out from Trump, his friends and family.”
Eventually, Team Trump issued a statement from Jackson — a scandal-plagued former White House physician with serious credibility problems — instead of from one of the physicians who actually treated the former president after the incident.
Now, they’re promoting another statement from Jackson, as part of an apparent effort to push back against Trump's handpicked FBI director.
Again, something hit Trump’s ear. Based on everything we now know, I’m very much inclined to believe that it was a bullet. But what’s baffling is why the Republican and his operation are so resistant to transparency.
Jackson’s latest statement said he’s reviewed the relevant medical records from Butler Memorial Hospital. Terrific. Why not show those same records to the public and put an end to the speculation? What’s more, why not make doctors who treated Trump available to journalists, instead of relying on a controversial member of Congress?

Notice how the teleprompters have magically reassembled themselves with a minute of being shattered. Also, it is complete disregard of facts to claim that he was "behind" them, when they are so small and cover such a tiny angle.
Why do you persist going against obvious facts? What is your motive here, spreading this misinformation?
tRump did. So did the firefighter who died and the two people severely injured.
Note no glass protecting the stage. The teleprompters are intact.
