Donald Trump has been criticizing the FBI director for suggesting he may not have been hit by a bullet when he was shot — and now… the agency is backtracking completely.
The FBI has just issued a statement that stands unequivocally firm in the notion that Trump was, in fact, hit by one of the Thomas Matthew Crooks‘AR-15 shooting a few weeks ago at his rally in Butler, Pennsylvania… where one person was killed and two others were injured.

The statement reads: “What struck former President Trump in the ear was a bullet, either whole or fragmented into smaller pieces, fired from the deceased’s rifle.”
Of course, this turnaround comes after Trump and his allies have shouted foul at the Christopher Wrayis wavering on that issue during his testimony before Congress this week… casting some doubt by saying it may have been shrapnel that hit his ear, not a full bullet.

This sparked a frenzy of speculation… with some saying Trump may have exaggerated the truth about his injury and exaggerated it for the media. DT, however, has always stuck to his story.
In fact, he doubled down on the bet again on Friday, posting a viral image of the bullet passing close to his ear and adding, “Maybe FBI Director Christopher Wray will realize there’s no shrapnel or glass flying through the ear, just a blood-stained bullet.”
Not that anyone would doubt it, but to rid our country of the political statement made by the Director of the FBI, between fighting for the safety of those who burn our American flags and now pulverizing our beautiful limestone monuments in Washington,… photo.twitter.com/a0AUqlOvtA

It seems that all this concern forced the FBI to come out and say it very clearly… he was caught that day, and the ordeal was just as dangerous as everyone was saying.
Time will tell whether this will appease Trump — who, by the way, lost the bandage and appears to be healing just fine.
He went from a big white bandage to a small beige one… and now, nothing. It’s a miracle!
