It sure as hell wasn’t a bullet.


Not to take Donny's side, but does it matter? Dude was injured during an assassination attempt. That's good enough for me.

Did it matter that the bullet that entered Reagan was a ricochet and not a direct shot?

I don't know if there is liability for the civilians who were shot, but I could see definitely worrying about that.


I can't imagine there would be any personal liability.
At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent.

Yeah. Don’t lie about getting hit by a bullet to make yourself look tough to your cult.

I don't think he knew at the time whether it was a bullet or shrapnel, and I don't think the treating physicians know either.

I wasn't thinking so much like Geno suggested that there was a duty to protect, but that a lawsuit might be generated due to negligence.

But I'm just playing at lawyer, and not even on TV.

I would like to see if I could sell t-shirts of it at a Trump rally with giant bloody ear printed on a t-shirt.

He tweeted immediately after that he was hit by a bullet.

Dude was shot at. Everyone in the known world who saw the video would say he was hit by a bullet. If someone has other information they'd like to put in the record, I'm all ears...

I don't care much if it was a bullet or a sofa chair. There's no convincing MAGA world even of things that don't happen at all.
