The former president has viewed the seven-second clip, in which his right ear was grazed with a bullet, multiple times, according to a Republican source close to his campaign
Is there more than just him walking out and see the truck? He does kinda look like “wow. They really can’t stop bringing this up. Wow. Incredible.”
I’ve heard him being asked by Adin and Elon (separately of course) about the shooting and they seem all giddy to ask and he goes along with it but to me I almost do feel a little bad for a second. Like just on a human level… this guy did almost get shot and all these clown-asses are running around like “wow Mr president tell us what happened! Did you know your brain almost got liquidated? Isn’t that fucking sick, man?!” I guess it’s because they don’t view him as a person, which I’d understand, but it’s more likely they’ve never encountered anything that truly terrified them like that. I guess people still operate on the old school type belief like “well, he didn’t get physically harmed (much) so he’s fine.” Which any modern psychologist or therapist or anything along those lines would immediately shut down like “no. That was a traumatic event for him and everyone there that day whether they recognize it or not and whether they experience any sort of reaction immediately after or long after or never. Everyone handles this stuff differently.”
The only humorous part to all of it is of course right wingers love to pretend mental health doesn’t matter and if you have significant responses to something like that you’re just “being a pussy” or whatever. So Trump is forced to basically suck it up, suffer, and endure all the clowns dancing around him. It’s legitimately funny. He can never go on tv and talk about how his heart races now when he hears a loud noise or his palms are sweaty going on stage or whatever he might have going on. He has to say he is unbothered, it was a tremendous thing, wow, a horrible thing, but tremendous, and just wow. Wow, folks. Wow.
