Leftists were left with egg on their faces, though they likely would not admit they were wrong about viral posts attacking former President Donald Trump.
When a video clip of the Republican nominee appeared on Fox News on Monday, screenshots hit social media as critics had a field day mocking Trump for wearing a bandage over his right ear. Recall that this was the ear grazed by a would-be assassin who attempted to take Trump’s life at a July 13 rally in Butler, PA.
While the former president had appeared with a larger gauze-type bandage over most of his ear during the Republican National Convention, he has since been bandage-free.
But those suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome were convinced he had taken to wearing a bandage again for sympathy, among other head-shaking reasons.
Trump wearing his ear bandage (yes—it’s back) is like the kid from high school who wore their outpatient hospital bracelet for weeks just to get attention. pic.twitter.com/HgtxN6NGQX

What!? Was he fake-assassinated again?

Why is Trump wearing a fake ear bandage weeks after he took off the other one and was “fully healed?”
Is this dementia?

The bandage prop just proves Trump’s cognition is severely impaired. How can he think putting another bandage on his ear six weeks after the initial alleged injury will make his FAKE INJURY more believable?
He’s gone, man, solid gone.— Simone & the Schnauzers (@Mamachula619) September 3, 2024
It was just a matter of time before the truth bomb was dropped by X users.
Ok!! CAN’T let this one just pass. Are you F’N SERIOUS. trump shows up today on Fox with a BANDAGE on his ear! And the FIRST thing that comes to mind is “that little fu*cker is taking SO much heat for there being NO scratch whatsoever, he’s back to hiding his ear”. He’s not only… pic.twitter.com/3Kc88YAtiF

The haters could have taken a moment to get the context but no time for facts when attacking the Orange Man.
In fact, the clip of Trump’s interview was replayed on the Labor Day edition of “Jesse Watters Primetime.”
“This election’s turned the last few months, into one of the most wild summers in memory. One guy gets shot, another drops out. Harris hops in. Her new V.P. honeymooned in China. I can’t keep up,” the Fox News host said at the top of the show as he recapped the many news-making moments in the past few months.
“Now it’s a mad dash to Election Day. And with two months left, every move is monumental. The Trump Vance ticket’s gone heavy on policy versus Kamala’s copy and paste campaign,” he continued, as he introduced the clip from his sit-down with Trump and his running mate, Sen. JD Vance (R-OH).
