(Though there probably wasn't any other choice at the moment.)
Republicans do not hold exclusive rights to nutters.
Not to say this figure is accurate, but it's still derived from something.

Does a 2cm missing chunk grow back? Whatever happened to Evander Holyfield's ear? 🤔
Saw a photo somewhere (where Trump had replaced that large white bandage with a smaller band-aid) that didn't seem to support the claim that it was a "2cm" wound.
The whole thing is still very unclear. He definitely suffered some sort of injury to his ear, because the bleeding was clearly visible.
A .223 round (not to be pedantic but it was a .223) doesn't have enough mass to cause the kind of proximal damage you're thinking, that's relegated to very large arms like .50 BMG and shit.Do we know that his ear was struck by a bullet for certain? When he reached for his ear. That could have been a reaction of hearing or feeling the wind and sound of a bullet flying by at close range but not necessarily striking him. The media released a still shot showing a flying bullet over his head by a couple of feet and behind him a bit.
When he went to the ground, the SS agents could have rolled up on his ear or it could have hit something on the ground tearing open a wound. I think a .556 round that close to his cranium would have done much more damage than a superficial wound. Old people have old persons skin. That means anything that touches their skin cuts it like butter.
I didn't understand that this was some weird personal thing. You feel the need to best me in a contest of wits over a grammatical term. I'm flattered that it's so important to you, but you'll have to go elsewhere for the gratification you seek, as I'm not going to enter into an argument about the precise definition of a nick.No. You said it was just a nick and Sanjay was overreacting
Now you say you dont know the severity of the nick
So what is it.
Come on.
Let me guess you posted without thinking

The RNC featured some of the ear flag fashion statements worn by his faithful followers. They must have been out of the f your feels t-shirts.Somehow his ear was injured, nothing penetrated his brain and he is still alive and inspiring the latest fashion trend of a diaper on your ear. Focus on important shit. Like @gothuevos finally has a secondary market for his massive diaper collection.
I don't understand why it matters. It wasn't a serious injury by any definition. The serious part is that it happened half an inch from his skull.Saw a photo somewhere (where Trump had replaced that large white bandage with a smaller band-aid) that didn't seem to support the claim that it was a "2cm" wound.

If it was an inch or a foot, does it really matter that much? It seems clear that Trump was the target, though I admit that's speculation and the only evidence is that that seems to be the direction the bullets were headed.Well, what I'm curious about is whether a bullet passed that close to his skull, or if the ear injury was a result of something other than the bullet.
The event was serious, insofar as a shooter got that close to Trump, but there's also the more "metaphysical" question of whether or not Trump missed death by as little as an inch.

I wouldn't say it matters much in terms of practical consequences. Just in terms of one's emotional response (to an event that might prove to be a major political turning point).
Clearly Trump was the target, though we still have little idea why. Seems quite possible the shooter would have gone after whatever prominant figure happened to be available as a target.
Fair enough. It appears that it's made a measurable difference in poles, but I doubt that's anything more than a short term bump. My wild ass guess is that Trump was the only target the shooter was interested in.I wouldn't say it matters much in terms of practical consequences.

The shooter had schedules saved for Trump and Biden. While we don’t know for sure and may never know the most likely answer is they were both targets, it’s just that Trump showed up first.Fair enough.

And to think it only took you about half a decade of wrongly saying the same thing before it came true!Personally, I think the (s/) absolutely astonishing discovery (s/) that Biden isn't mentally competent is having a far greater effect than Trump getting winged.
Why are you still talking about this? To quote Trump after a school shooting where kids and teachers were killed, "we have to move on"Fair enough.

I was engaged in a conversation with pmv. You should have read the statement I quoted before responding. That way you would understand what was being discussed.Why are you still talking about this? To quote Trump after a school shooting where kids and teachers were killed, "we have to move on"
That you chose to ignore the evidence doesn't change my understanding of the situation. If it makes you happy to believe that Biden suffered a rapid decline over a few weeks, that's fine with me. Though it would indicate that his mental health deteriorating very rapidly. I don't see how it changes anything at this point. Joe isn't doing well, everyone on the planet knows it, roughly half the country doesn't care. How that all plays out will be decided by the states come November.The shooter had schedules saved for Trump and Biden.

It’s sort of funny, for the last five years it’s been like:
Conservatives in 2020 - Biden’s brain is mush, he can’t think!
(Biden easily outsmarts them)
Conservatives in 2022 - I mean it this time!
(Biden easily outsmarts them again)
Conservatives in 2024 - See?!? I was right all along!
I mean if nothing else how is this anything other than total humiliation for you guys? The guy with no brain beat you over and over again.
You realize you are ignoring the evidence, right? Again, people point to Biden’s debate performance here as evidence of his decline but he wiped the floor with Trump at a time you were already saying his brain was mush!That you chose to ignore the evidence doesn't change my understanding of the situation.

lol you don’t say? Greenie, the one that believes the orange monkey speaks in complete sentences. The one that still insists they were unarmed. The one that refuses to accept the facts unless there’s a verdict by a jury.You realize you are ignoring the evidence, right?
The guy who doggedly insists Trump didn’t attempt a coup despite admitting Trump tried to get Pence to act illegally to keep him in power, the dictionary definition of a coup.lol you don’t say?
