Questions Mount About Lack of Medical Reports on Trump’s Injury

It has now been almost four full days since the assassination attempt on Donald Trump at his Saturday rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, and the public has not been officially appraised as to the extent and nature of his injuries, and no doctors have commented on them except Trump’s own Dr. Feelgood, ex-admiral now demoted to Captain Ronnie Jackson, who flew to Trump’s golf retreat in Bedminster, New Jersey on Sunday morning, nearly ten hours after the incident, to tend to his wounds. The Trump campaign has reported that Trump was taken to a local hospital afterward, but no statement from the facility or its doctors has been released as of yet.

And questions are mounting:

“Four days after a 20-year old registered Republican shot at Donald Trump at an outdoor campaign rally, killing one man and wounding three others including the ex-president, questions continue to grow as the Trump campaign stays silent.

Trump on Saturday appeared to touch his ear, which moments later was seen covered in blood. The Secret Service is now under investigation. Trump had enough time to mouth “fight!” and pump his fists at the crowd, giving photographers the opportunity to take what are being called “iconic” images of the shooting. Trump even repeatedly demanded agents wait for him to find his shoes before pulling him to safety…

… To date, not a single physician who treated Trump at the local hospital has addressed the press with any medical information on the 78-year old who this week officially became the Republican Party nominee for president.

The New York Times on Tuesday reported U.S. Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX), the disgraced former Physician to the President, said he traveled from Texas to Bedminster, New Jersey to be with Trump at his private golf course, arriving at 4:30 AM Sunday. According to The Times, Jackson “replaced the dressing on the former president’s ear on a flight to Milwaukee for the Republican National Convention.”

It is, on the face of it, patently rediculous that an ex-President could be struck anywhere on his body by a high velocity round fired from a military grade AR-15 and then discharged without a statement from the attending hospital and allowed to travel to another state with, I suppose, a lollipop and a couple of BandAids for later in his pocket.

But that is no more ridiculous than this dubious statement from Dr. Ronnie after his ministrations:

“It was far enough away from his head that there was no concussive effect from the bullet, and it just took the top of his ear off,” Jackson said.

I cannot imagine a bullet being closer to his head than “the top of his ear”, but, hey, I am not a doctor.

“Political commentator Bob Cesca on Wednesday quoted from this NBC News report that reads: “A Trump adviser on Tuesday declined to answer specific questions about the former president’s injury, telling NBC News that any statements about Trump’s health, his condition and medical care related to his ear would come directly from the former president.”

So we are supposed to rely on the comments from a known liar and adjudicated fraud and his house doctor about his condition?

What does his caddy have to say?

I am not alone in refusing to accept this garbage…

“It has been several days since Trump was injured,” observed national security attorney Brad Moss Wednesday morning. “No medical reports. No statements from doctors. Nothing. And the media is barely talking about it, instead discussing an imaginary ‘pivot’.”

The media must begin to demand that we see reports and comments from attending physicians who are not part of the Trump campaign.

We have a right to know for certain whether Trump’s claim to have been struck by a bullet are fact and not just nonsense made up by Trump and his media consultants.

And we need real evidence of this assertion, true or not, before Election Day.
