We live in crazy times, and crazy conspiracies are coming along for the ride.
It didn’t take long for the far-fetched theory that Trump wasn’t hurt, or even shot at during the now infamous Pennsylvania rally on July 13th to take root. Yet, the world stood momentarily still after live footage showed presidential nominee Donald Trump duck behind a podium as shots were fired, only to rise with his fist defiantly in the air telling the crowd — and America — to “Fight, fight, fight!”
What an iconic, epic, and miraculous moment that was. And while some non-Trump voters gave him credit for his irrefutable courage, others only saw Trump rising in the polls.
Enter the “Trump was never shot, never injured, or exaggerated the injury” accusations.
Wildly popular podcaster and comedian Joe Rogan ripped those who’ve been pooh-poohing the historic moment we all witnessed that night and had a good chuckle.
“The guy behind him who got murdered; that wasn’t real?”

“Do you think he cut his ear like a pro-wrestler?” Rogan sarcastically asked when his guest former CIA covert operations officer Mike Baker said he’d been hearing people say Trump was never shot.
But both he and Rogan agreed there’s no getting around it.
“We heard gun shots. We saw the guy get shot who was shooting at him. The guy behind him got murdered. A couple other got injured,” Rogan went on.
“It 100% happened. To say it didn’t happen is insane,” he continued. “And then you had Joy Reid on TV saying, well, ‘Biden got over COVID, which is basically the same thing.”
This point had both Rogan and Baker cracking up.
“People are losing their f—ing minds!” Baker exclaimed.
Rogan’s rant made for plenty of fun on X where folks chimed in:
The same people who are saying Trump faked it are the same ones who said Joe was in perfect health and staying in the race.

To impossible to fake. Not just the shooting but follow ups.
