    He didn’t shoot Trump, he shot towards him.

        lol:

        Crooks tried out for his school’s rifle team but failed to make it because he was a “comically bad shot” and made jokes deemed inappropriate with firearms around, two former classmates told The New York Post.

        He missed his target by close to 20ft, Jameson Murphy said.

        “He tried out…and was such a comically bad shot he was unable to make the team and left after the first day,” he added.

        I understand the injury to his ear was from shrapnel.

          Don’t know why you’re being downvoted. I thought that the current theory was that his ear was cut by a glass shard from a teleprompter.

          Has that been disproven?
