Nothing confirms one’s complete and utter devotion to Donald Trump’s bullsh*t and busload of staged alternate reality like donning lookalike fake ear bandages in performative mimicry of dear leader’s cynical attempts to elicit sympathy from America’s voters during televised coverage of the Republican Convention following the attempt on his life last Saturday.

It is not my intention to minimize the horror of live gunfire at a political event, gunfire that left one onlooker dead and two critically injured.

But the stubborn fact remains that we have yet to see evidence in the form of law enforcement or medical reports confirming Trump’s assertion that he was actually struck by a bullet. Until we do, which at this point seems highly unlikely, I reserve the right to believe that his ostentatious bandage was used more to hide the fact that there is no significant damage to the ear than for medical reasons.

And yet the idiots at the convention perpetuate his charade:

Raw Story

“A new prop appears to have gained steam at the Republican National Convention — ear bandages.

MAGA world is no stranger to Donald Trump-themed merchandise, whether it’s Trump-themed shoes or a new campaign T-shirt featuring his new running mate’s name.

Photos emerged Tuesday of Trump supporters wearing bandages over their ears in what appears to be in solidarity with Trump’s own bandage he wore during his RNC appearance Monday night. Trump wore the bandage after an assassination attempt left the MAGA leader bloodied at a Saturday rally.

And the internet couldn’t stop laughing, relentlessly mocking MAGA supporters on X.“

ACYN on Twitter mocks their efforts:

In some states, yes.

I will gladly edit this post with my apologies if just one photograph or medical report surfaces that shows actual damage to his ear.

But, as I said, that seems unlikely.

  4. Think back twenty years (those of you who’re old enough) and the GOP convention. It used to be easy to find pictures of delegates mocking John Kerry but now it’s damned near impossible. Maybe I need to head into the kitchen and make a tinfoil hat but I can’t help but wonder why. It’s almost like internet search engines have scrubbed all those pics. In any case, one gal can be found with a big smile, wearing one of those “Purple Heart Baid Aids” that got passed out, and believe me there once was plenty of video and pictures of LOTS of GOPers in 2004 wearing one of these things on their chin, cheek, forehead, hands or arms. To mock Democratic nominee John Kerry’s war service and three Purple Hearts. TONS of talk about “minor wounds”, “barely scratched” etc. For a guy who had served a tour offshore on a destroyer not exactly safe but not at much of a risk either. His “military service” ticket was punched as the saying goes. Still, he VOLUNTEERED to go back and serve a tour in what was, except for the new SEALs the most dangerous assingnment in the Navy – Swift Boats. He commanded one and with distinction. Three Purple Hearts (none of his wounds were “serious” but quite more than superficial nonetheless), as well as Bronze and Silver Stars (the latter bing the fourth highest military decoration) for actions in combat. Again, he volunteered to put himself in harm’s way for a year on those rivers in Vietnam. Two of his wounds might, I emphasize might be no worse than Trump’s nick to the ear. But GOPers openly mocked Kerry with their band aids. And I recall plenty of delegates wearing plain band aids and sometimes when seeing a camera aimed at them pointing to it! Kerry was in more danger of getting killed every time, and in fact most days of that tour (every time he took his boat out on a patrol) than Trump. And GOPers mocked him with band aids while they now deify Trump and PROUDLY wear HUGE bandages? Fuck that shit.

    • I was thinking the same thing. These people only laugh at violence happening to someone they dislike and cannot handle .a real hero..They would have pulled crap.if Eisenhower had been a Dem.

  5. I don’t think anyone should be surprised by ear bandages in solidarity with a guy who didn’t die by gunfire. These are the same people who wear crosses on their necks in supposed solidarity with Jesus whose manner of death was crucifixion!! Thoughtless sick puppies one and all!!

  6. If a man ever deserved a beating…it would be him.
    John Dutton in Yellowstone talking about his corrupt son Jamie…I feel that way about ALL these phucking posers acting tough being guarded by armed secret service, riding around in bullet proof limos and sleeping in 5 star hotels…there ARE real heroes in this world…none of these pampered LIARS fit that bill.
