FBI Backtracks, Now Says Trump Was Hit By Bullet

Donald Trump has been railing on the FBI’s director for suggesting he may not have been hit by a bullet when he was shot at — and now … the company’s utterly backpedaling.

The FBI simply put out an announcement that unequivocally stands agency on the notion Trump was, in reality, struck by considered one of Thomas Matthew Crooks‘ AR-15 rounds a pair weeks in the past at his rally in Butler, PA … the place one particular person was killed, and two others had been injured.

The assertion reads, “What struck former President Trump in the ear was a bullet, whether whole or fragmented into smaller pieces, fired from the deceased subject’s rifle.”

In fact, this about-face comes after Trump and his allies have cried foul at Christopher Wray‘s waffling on this challenge throughout his congressional testimony this week … casting a little bit of doubt by saying it’d’ve been shrapnel that peppered his ear versus a full bullet.

That kicked up a frenzy of hypothesis … with some saying Trump might have stretched the reality on his damage and hammed it up for the media. DT, nonetheless, at all times caught to his story.

In truth, he doubled down but once more on Friday — posting a now-viral picture of the bullet whizzing previous his ear and including, “Perhaps FBI Director Christopher Wray will notice there is no shrapnel or glass flying through the ear, only a bloodstained bullet.”

It appears all of the handwringing has pressured the FBI to return out and say it very clearly … he received nicked that day, and the ordeal was simply as harmful as everybody’s been saying.

Time will inform if this appeases Trump — who, BTW, has misplaced his bandage and appears to have healed up fairly properly.
