No report on Trump’s health 3 days after assassination attempt

Exactly 72 hours after the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, neither his campaign nor his doctors have released any relevant information about the extent of his injuries, or any update on the health of the 78-year old man who just became the Republican Party's presidential nominee.

While seeing apparent blood on his ear and dripping across his face, Americans have not been seen a medical report about the effects of the shooting that did take a supporter's life and seriously wounded two other people.

Nor have Americans been told the extent of his injuries, how serious they were, if they were caused by a bullet, shrapnel, or shards of glass. No one has been told if any material entered the ex-president's skull or brain, or if there is any lasting damage – cosmetic or otherwise.

According to Eric Trump on Monday at the RNC, "my father got shot at. Somebody took off half his ear."

There are far more questions than answers, and the questions are growing.

"As an investigative journalist, I notice missing evidence & ask why," writes former Forbes reporter Jonathan Greenberg, who exposed Trump's "John Barron" con. "Why is Trump hiding medical report/ear imagery? Where are bullet forensics of shooter to Trump & 3 victims? Where was Trump & what was he doing for 10 days prior to shooting? Where was shooter past month?"

Greenberg's question about the convicted ex-president's whereabouts for ten days also has also gone unanswered. After the damning debate with President Joe Biden, but before Saturday's shooting that could have taken Trump's life, some expressed wonder about the convicted ex-president's apparent 10-plus day disappearance. That wonder, for some, has turned into baseless conspiracy theories including one that alleges the assassination was staged and Trump disappeared for over a week to "rehearse" the plot.

Attorney and former congressional special counsel John P. Flannery II, a frequent cable news guest, declared, "hey Don release your medical records."

"I am in no way saying anything wasn’t as it seemed but can we at least get an official medical report on Trump’s ear?" asked professor of law Eric Segall on Tuesday.

"You would think someone would inquire about Trump’s medical report if for no other reason than Trump has not provided any medical updates or information, neither has the hospital that treated him," remarked former Republican Party chairman Michael Steele. "Outside of Trump telling us he’s 'fine', how severe was the wound? Did he loose part of his ear (bullets do terrible things to flesh)? How long for recovery? Will the wound require cosmetic surgery? What about reports that it may not have been a bullet which wounded him but glass from the shattered teleprompter?"

"I mean isn't fair to ask Trump to release the medical records? What was the extent of the injury? Is he healing? How is his health? What did the doctors say? This is a 78-year-old man who survived a shooting and is running for President after all," commented Daily Beast columnist Wajahat Ali.
