Two Trumpers shot at Butler rally might clarify what really happened to Trump's ear...

Jim Copenhaver, 74 and David Dutch, 57 were both shot at Trump's rally in Butler. Now, they both intend to sue the Secret Service - whom they feel "failed them and Trump that day in July and was negligent in its security response."

In doing so though, these two men are very likely to enlighten the rest of us as to whether Trump was actually hit by a bullet that day. Per their interview with NBC News:

“It was like getting hit with a sledgehammer right in the chest,” Dutch said, adding that he could see chunks of the bleacher and metal "flying all around” until the shooting stopped.

Sadly, the only truth any of us ever know about what actually happened that day is likely to be the result of a civil personal injury case brought by private citizens.
