Michael Steele, who served as the head of the RNC during the Obama administration, speculated Tuesday on MSNBC about big unanswered questions about "the extent and nature of the damage to [Donald Trump's] ear" following the assassination attempt Saturday.
"There are a lot of questions around that ear," Steele said. "Let's start with last night and the band-aid. It’s been three days -- going on four -- since this horrific event occurred."

Mr Steele obviously knows very little about guns or bullets, so he needs to just shut the fuck up. Had the bullet hit something with a little resistance, then yeah, there would've been a lot of damage. But an ear? That bullet punched right on through and kept traveling pretty much like it would've had it hit a paper or cardboard target.
On a somewhat related note, I saw an article the other day about how it could cost up to $100,000 (!) to repair Trump's ear and my first thought was "Repair? Who would want to repair that ear? That's a motherfucking trophy, man! Wear it with pride!"
Shit, if that was me I'd be showing it off like there was no tomorrow. I'd even cut my hair regularly to show it off.
Steele has always been a RINO. A leftist plant pretending to be something he's not.
ReplyDeleteAffirmative-Action Head of the RNC, responsible for half the weak-tea party the Republicans have become.
DeleteNot to mention all those people crammed together and the possibility of infection setting in. It doesn't take a lot of brains to know that's a risk. However, I agree, it's a trophy.
ReplyDeleteI don't mean this in a derogatory way, but hasn't this Steele fella ever heard of "gauged ears"?
ReplyDeleteSteele is a Deep State RINO cuck. He was also caught on a live mike,all these fools are too stupid to check. My guess is they don't care anymore that people know. His statement was he did didn't care how demented Biden is (proof everyone in politics knows), he would vote for him even if he just sat in a corner in diapers drooling all day. This pretty much is the Republican Party. Why anyone with a brain votes for these fucks, I cant figure out.
ReplyDeleteHmmm.
DeleteIf Michael Steele had been shot *exactly* the same way Trump was, would the shockwave of the bullet passing have *blown* his little pea-brain out the opposite ear, or would it have *sucked* his little pea-brain out the near ear on the way by?
This day is called the feast of Crispian:
ReplyDeleteHe that outlives this day, and comes safe home,
Will stand a tip-toe when the day is named,
And rouse him at the name of Crispian.
He that shall live this day, and see old age,
Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours,
And say ‘To-morrow is Saint Crispian:’
Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars.
And say ‘These wounds I had on Crispin’s day.’
Old men forget: yet all shall be forgot,
But he’ll remember with advantages
What feats he did that day: then shall our names.
Familiar in his mouth as household words
Harry the king, Bedford and Exeter,
Warwick and Talbot, Salisbury and Gloucester,
Be in their flowing cups freshly remember’d.
This story shall the good man teach his son;
And Crispin Crispian shall ne’er go by,
From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remember’d;
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne’er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition:
And gentlemen in England now a-bed
Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin’s day.
From Henry V, Act IV, Scene III
Bot bad, but Invictus would be more spot on:
DeleteOut of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.

"Wear it with pride" Yeah, kind of how I thought of it too. If there was an actual hole, a fat gold ring would be a great 'Up yours'.

I have a very large chunk of my left ear missing. It looks like someone used scissors to snip a triangle off the very top. I got it from skin cancer. The doctor told me it was because of sun exposure.
ReplyDeleteI myself believe that it come from so many years of exposure to leaning over molten metal at 3100-3200 degrees taking temps an samples. I felt the top of my ear melt several times over the 35 years or so of my time there. The metal would be so hot that you could not stand to look at it without a shield or cobalt glasses.
The doc's got a slightly better case, as sunlight is mutagenic. But only very slightly better, as repeated physical insults (burns) are well known to have the same effect over long periods. Most likely it's a case of 'and'. Serious sun exposure and scar tissue are a setup for sure. No matter the cause, glad you caught it and fixed it.
DeleteApparently, Dim Wit MSNBC toady and former RNC DEI hire Steele didn't see the photo of the vapor trail left behind when the corner of Trump's ear was taken off. Or more likely he's seen it and chooses to ignore it so as to secure his lucrative contact with the network of fools. Either way, he's an idiot and his opinion means nothing to anyone with a functioning brain cell.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of the bullet vapor trail….
DeleteIt was taken with an insane exposure like 1/8000….
for a campaign podium photo….????
and taken by same photog….
that took w’s 9/11 photos….lucky man….
and the lady to trump45’s left….
who was calmly filming with her iPhone….calm lady….
I’m sure there will be more strange details coming out.

The question isn't just how in the hell that roof 150 yards away from Trump was unguarded. The question is also how this gunman knew that it was unguarded.
ReplyDeleteWhy did media choose televise the very first of these Trump rally? Why now?
Media is often at these rally. BUT
DeleteThis is the first time than CNN has been live broadcasting a Trump speech. Ever.
CNN has a long-standing ability to have a camera crew on scene when bad things happen to Republicans, like the 6 AM FBI raid on Roger Stone or the raid at Mar A Lago.
Who told them to be there?
Also: This was the last event before Trump was named the candidate, and he selected Vance as his VP.
If Trump had been killed, the RINOs at the RNC would have been able to name a Uniparty slate for President and VP.

"Acted alone" my ass.
DeleteThere's video of Crooks walking around the building he shot from, taking distance readings, looking at where the guard positions were and such.
DeleteIt's looking more like the kid was actually a decent shot but for whatever reason Trump moved just at the right time.
He was shooting his fathers rifle which I'll guarntee was dead nuts on.

And another thing:
ReplyDelete"A Lot Of Questions Around That Ear," We Have No Official Medical Records From Trump Assassination Attempt -
You mean kind of like we've never gotten any medical records of the three cognitive tests supposedly given to your hero, Joe Biden? Kind of like that, you ass-sucking clown?
Who the F*** does he think he is anyway? Of course you don't have any official medical records of a private citizen! I would even go as far to say that if you were guarding him for a national interest, then maybe...but you weren't even protecting him at all!
ReplyDeleteI found this on "Irons in the Fire":
ReplyDeletehttps://elmtreeforge.blogspot.com/2024/07/how-much-did-trumps-reaction-affect.html
And this made me laugh ( I can't remember where I first saw it) :
https://babylonbee.com/news/oh-no-piece-of-ear-shot-off-trump-begins-to-grow-into-second-trump
Steele is just pissed that he made it to the top of the establishment and was put aside cause he was ineffective...
ReplyDeleteSteele apparantly never heard of HIPAA. Trump is a private citizen (thanks to RNC letting the Dems get away with the steal) and as such doesn't owe the RNC or anyone else his medical records. Technically as of this writing he's isn't even the Nominee.
ReplyDeleteI had a cancer removed from my ear. It didn't cost anywhere near $100k to repair. The surgeries, the pathologies on the tissue samples, etc, didn't cost anywhere near that much.
ReplyDeleteHIPPA is a valid excuse Mr. Steel. And how much has been told about Obama and FJB’s medical history?
ReplyDeleteYa Man!
ReplyDeleteChutes Magoo
Steele, shut the fuck up you useless rino POS
