The FBI's director has cast doubt on whether Donald Trump was struck by a bullet during the attempt on his life at a Pennsylvania political rally.
Christopher Wray was updating Congress on the assassination attempt on Trump in Butler on Wednesday when he made the explosive statement.
'There’s some question about whether or not it’s a bullet or shrapnel that hit his ear,' Wray said.
Wray was addressing security failures that allowed gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks to open fire. Crooks, 20, killed firefighter Corey Comperatore, 50, and injured two others including Trump during the shooting.
The presidential hopeful has since given extensive accounts of the moment he was shot and was seen sporting a bandage over his ear.
'When I went down, bullets were coming over my head and you hear them, it's like a zip, zip,' he said.
The former president claims his Secret Service detail 'thought it was over when I went down' because of 'a lot of blood coming' after his ear was grazed.
Trump, 78, argued with his agents, telling them how he was 'not going on a stretcher' and instead vowed to 'get up'.
He added that a last minute turn of the head to glance at a screen is what saved him from the bullet.
'I'm supposed to be dead. The most incredible thing was that I happened to not only turn, but to turn at the exact right time and in just the right amount,' he added, saying he survived 'by luck or by God'.
Some initial reports on the day of the shooting speculated that Trump may have been struck by a shattered piece of glass when a bullet struck the teleprompter.
The teleprompter theory, however, was debunked when photos showed that both glass screens were in tact after the attack.

Shooters.
This is the headline:FBI director casts doubt on whether Trump was struck by bullet during assassination attempt at rally
This is the text:
'There’s some question about whether or not it’s a bullet or shrapnel that hit his ear,' Wray said.
That's FBI director Wray casting doubt about whether President Trump was struck by a bullet. That's a match, “Book'em Danno.”
That is the truth in a teacup.
All part of the American Communist Party’s quick strategy to complete the total elimination of this evil assassination attempt from cultural history...
The communists are on the march and in full control...
The American sheeple are sound asleep...
Seems pretty accurate to me.
So leave it to a dunderhead like Wray to bring it up, probably to throw shade on the shooting victim. I suppose he'd say the killed fireman and the other injured spectators may have been COVID victims attacked by murder hornets.
That included McTurtle’s choice, Kentucky woman Gina Haspel.
Dude is full of crap.
there was nothing in between the shooter and trump for a bullet to hit and create shrapnel ...
Yes, he is. It is 100% political activist propaganda fodder he is throwing out for the Mockingbird Media to pick up on.
It is demonstrably false since the only thing between the shooter and Trump that was elevated enough to have created shrapnel, that could have then hit Trump, had it been hit, was the teleprompter on his right. It was fully intact as even Snopes has admitted and proven.
Wray is Deep State scum who belongs in Gitmo and his TDS is glaringly obvious here.
Same dude that signed off on the Hunter Biden Laptop being being a Russian plot. Why does this man still have a job?
So Wray is just saying a bullet might have stricken ice chunks falling from the sky, it would be unprofessional to leave that possibility out. Or, that some other gunman, from another direction, might have broken something else. Yeah, that's the ticket. Two gunmen. Wait ... umm ...
/s
FBI director attempts to gaslight nation on what millions of people have seen. Shows not only is he a liar, but he arrogantly believes that he can say something that will cause people do doubt their own eyes. Democrat voters being the dumbest of the dumb will believe him. The biggest threat to America is Democrat voters.
I want to see him perp walked out and any security clearances him or any other worthless jackwagon gets revoked immediately. Then go raid his house 4:00 AM with agents with orders to use deadly force IF NECCESSARY.
We have a time sequence of photographs of the bullet in flight and the velocity can be determined as well as details of the trajectory.
So that NYTimes pic was of shrapnel shooting by on that trajectory? Or of a bullet that also shot just by him at the same time his ear was hit by shrapnel?
Maybe Wray can get 50 other lying treasonous a-holes to co-sign a document claiming it was actually a giant Russian bumble bee that stung Trump’s ear and it was pre-planned with them by Trump and Steve Bannon.
It was entirely coincidental to the shooter killing and wounding other people there ... for unknown reasons that are still under investigation.
The left is evil and have the minds of demons.
I forgot about that pic. Thanks for bringing it up!
What’s inexcusable is that the director of the FBI ignored the significance of that picture and threw sand in the eyes of the public. He also proved that he is stupid, a liar and dirty and anti Trump.
Imagine being DJT and seeing/hearing Wray say this.
This Guy says there’s some talk of Wray losing his (already vanishing) reputation, his job, his career, his pension and his freedom in one fell swoop, very soon. Can’t say for sure though. Sources and methods, you know.
