It is when you don't aim at your target, and don't actually hit the targets ear. It's really easy to fake a cut ear

I heard it was a shard of security glass, which is very different from a bullet. People around him had similar minor injuries, from what I recall

Edited to add: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/bullet-glass-trump-wound/ turns out it was an early theory that was later walked back. Seems I didn't follow the story as closely as I could have.

Mind you, whether it was a bullet (as it was) or glass (as I thought), that doesn't really change much beyond how off the shooter's aim was.

Trump was best friends with a guy whose entire schtick was trafficking children to pedos. I sincerely doubt hed GAF if some rando ate it

The logic checks out

Pedos who ate babies and killed children. He definitely did not gaf about a sacrificial follower.

Can I ask about your source? You sound like a conspiracy nutter right now with those claims since illuminati bathing in toddler blood is something I usually hear by schizos on 4chan 😭

I get that a lot of rich people like going to island parties where they could have their way with questionably aged girls. I don’t get the whole cannibalism follow-up.

it was in the portions of the released Epstein files released by the US government. Emails about eating the intestines of babies, murders of newborns in front of their underage mothers, vile shit I’d like to unread. I wouldn’t believe it either if it wasn’t part of those drops.

I cross-checked your claims and you should do some more digging than spread misinformation. Especially ones that look fishy at first glance.

The babies: Seems just like it was an anonymous tip which FBI did not trust in the end.

The killing: Oh look another anonymous tip

Some other random anonymous tips you can read up on: I like the one aboug real bigfoot hair. Considering your past you probably believe in that one too?

Please use the time I wasted checking on your lies to ponder if spreading crazy sounding allegations does not hurt your side of seeing others how bad of a person Trump is more than just spreading truth on the actual vile stuff he did.

Oh boy this guy

u/Worldlyoox 7d ago

As much as I’m sure actual heinous shit of that caliber happened on that island/around that guy, I’d rather 100% know the truth than believe in something that can be easily dismissive as some drugged ramblings

u/Wakti-Wapnasi 7d ago

Maybe they should just release the full unredacted files to eliminate all doubt then

u/BorderKeeper 7d ago

I agree.

Think they got the guys name wrong when they "honored" him too

u/AMK972 7d ago

He wasn’t even close to being best friends with that guy. You can even look at the Epstein Files where a lot of the messages (which is why Trump’s name shows up a lot) is trying to get Trump to join their group and Trump refusing. Then Trump banned Epstein from his property and Epstein’s messages changed from trying to recruit Trump to trying to tear him down.

In a 2002 interview with New York magazine, Donald Trump spoke about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, stating: "I’ve known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side."

What guy was this?

u/gregforgothisPW 8d ago

But it does mean Trump was in the path of a bullet meaning the "its easy if you don't aim at him" part of the conspiracy theory doesn't work.

The guy missed it wasn't staged. Lets deal with reality please

u/subject522 10d ago

The best friend he reported to the authorities?

u/Duce-de-Zoop 9d ago

Yeah after they had a falling out and Epstein was already under investigation Trump finally gave a call. Not sure why he sat on that until Epstein was being investigated but sure. Totally must've been out of the goodness of his heart.

I do believe him when he said he knew. Like Trump said in 2002, before the falling out, "I've known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side."

Personally I think this is a very strange thing to say about a guy you will late claim you always knew was a pedophile. But whatever. Nothing suspicious there.
