Trump Survives Assassination Attempt, FBI Confirms Bullet Wound

Former President Donald Trump was struck by a bullet at a Pennsylvania rally earlier this month, FBI confirms. The wound in his right ear came under scrutiny after an attempted assassination. Trump accepted an apology from the FBI as the bureau clarified the nature of the projectile.

In a recent turn of events, the FBI confirmed that former President Donald Trump was hit by a bullet during an attempted assassination at his Pennsylvania rally earlier this month.

The FBI's statement indicates that Trump sustained a wound in his right ear from a bullet or its fragment shot by the deceased attacker. Reacting to the news, Trump announced at a West Palm Beach rally that he accepted an apology from the FBI and referenced the political ramifications of this incident.

This confirmation, though it substantiates Trump's claims, has done little to mitigate the political turbulence surrounding the event. The former president continues to claim he 'took a bullet for democracy' and has openly criticized FBI Director Christopher Wray over the bureau's varied initial analyses.
