Trump mad FBI questioning if he was shot

Former President Donald Trump lashed out on Truth Social after FBI Director Christopher Wray raised questions about whether he was hit by a bullet or shrapnel during an assassination attempt at a campaign rally in Butler, Pa., earlier this month.

"FBI Director Christopher Wray told Congress yesterday that he wasn’t sure if I was hit by shrapnel, glass, or a bullet (the FBI never even checked!)" Trump fumed on his social network. "No, it was, unfortunately, a bullet that hit my ear, and hit it hard. There was no glass, there was no shrapnel. The hospital called it a 'bullet wound to the ear,' and that is what it was. No wonder the once storied FBI has lost the confidence of America!" he wrote.
