A fired former MSNBC host is raising doubts about whether the assassination attempt against President Donald Trump was genuine, fanning the flames of a far-left conspiracy theory that has persisted since he was shot last year.
Joy Reid, who was let go by the struggling news network earlier this year, said the “alleged” attempt on Trump’s life deserves more scrutiny, and she questioned how his ear “grew back” after the shooting. She also speculated about whether Trump was struck by a bullet or glass from a shattered teleprompter board that was also hit on July 13, 2024, in Butler, Penn.
“He’s got these magical doctors who claimed that he was shot in the ear, but his ear, I guess, grew back,” Reid remarked on Katie Phang’s YouTube channel. “He had a Dukal bandage on one minute, no bandage the next. We can’t get a medical record from this alleged assassination. He was supposedly shot. We have nothing. We’ve got no — we can’t even ask.”
Phang interjected, “Where are the investigative records? One day, he slapped a Maxi Pad on his ear. The next day, the ear is totally fine.”
“It’s fine!” Reid exclaimed. “I remember being in mainstream media where we both used to work, saying, ‘Isn’t it odd that we’ve never asked for his medical records?’ And I got in trouble for that. So, you’re not allowed to even say, ‘Isn’t that weird?’”
