Pete Souze disabled his account because of comments by the MAGA crowd.
“I re-posted a screenshot of New York Times photographer Doug Mills’ Twitter post of the same situation of Trump boarding his plane, which included the date and time of his photo. Doug is one of Trump’s favorite photographers and Trump has publicly called him ‘my genius photographer.’ So I thought the maga world would at least believe Doug Mills.”
“They didn’t. The comments turned ugly. Mostly about me, but also some that disparaged Doug Mills,” Souza continues.
“So I de-activated my Twitter account. It was a gut decision, made only by me. I am still not sure if this is a temporary or a permanent action,” Souza continues.
He obviously milked it to the maximum. That ear bandage he was walking around with, was obviously a PR thing too. It did never look like a medical professional was anywhere near that.
Look, I hate the guy, but that is how you bandage an ear.
People got shot so that parts real.
He could have been nicked or he could have caught it on a sharp point bending down or he could have cut it with a fingernail.
My money is on the fingernail. He’s probably on blood thinners. He’s probably got thin, brittle skin. He probably clawed at his ear when the bullet whizzed by.
He could easily have nicked it. A nick can bleed like crazy and also heal very fast.
From there it’s all spin…
The simplest explanation is probably this given how fast it healed, I guess.
that is how you bandage an ear.
No. Its not.

I don’t doubt, that he was grazed by a bullet or a shrapnel. I’m just saying he milked it and that bandage was not professional.
I had a cancer removed from my ear and they bandaged it a lot like this? There are two primary means if bandaging an ear and they both look ridiculous. I have no doubt he got them to “make it look like a big deal” but you are not slapping a bandaid on that and calling it a day, right?
Edit - Moh’s surgery dressing is what I’m talking about.

If you have any questions or comments about me, you can make a post to LW Support lemmy community.I am even more convinced now than ever that the conspiracy theory I have been trying to start is true, they are covering up that he was shot in one ear and it went out the other without doing any damage whatsoever.
If you don’t hear from me in 24 hours, they got to me, man, the MIB got to me
