MSNBC analyst Michael Steele faced accusations of pushing “conspiracy theories” on Tuesday night when he questioned whether former President Donald Trump’s ear was actually hit by a high-caliber bullet during an assassination attempt at a Pennsylvania rally on Saturday.
Trump narrowly escaped the attempt on his life, suffering a graze to his ear by a bullet that came inches from killing him. He appeared at the Republican National Convention on Monday with a bandage on his ear, raising questions from Steele during MSNBC’s coverage of the event.
“Let’s start with last night and the Band-Aid …. It’s been three days, going on four, since this horrific event occurred. A person lost their life, two have been severely injured, and yet we’ve not received a medical report from the hospital, nor have we received a medical report from the campaign, or from the Trump organization about the extent of the damage to his ear,” Steele said.
Steele continued, “If he was shot by a high-caliber bullet, there should probably be very little ear there. And so, we’d like to know that. Is there cosmetic surgery involved? What is the prognosis for recovery? Were there stitches? What is the extent and nature of the damage to his ear? Was it caused by a bullet, as opposed to, as some reports … saying it was actually shards of glass from the teleprompter?”
Steele, a former Republican National Committee chair turned anti-Trump MSNBC pundit, said there are “a lot of questions” surrounding the incident. Host Ari Melber noted that people have called for President Biden’s medical records, implying that more information on Trump’s ear injury would be appropriate.
