However, as more and more information begins to come to light surrounding Saturday’s violent attack, more and more questions and confusion regarding the matter are coming to the surface as well — and critics are beginning to rightfully demand some answers as we seem to be getting the largest majority of information from social media while some people feel that the former president and his campaign are showing a resounding lack of transparency.
It seems that pressure has finally gotten to the ex-president, as he’s now released a truly bizarre letter from a doctor that he claims covers the scope of his medical status and condition following the assassination attempt.
The only catch?
The letter is from his former White House physician Ronny Jackson — the very same Trump sycophant who was credibly accused of running a “pill mill” out of the Trump White House.
Trump is slated to hold his first rally since the attempt on his life in Michigan this evening. Just hours before the rally is set to start, Trump posted the long-winded letter from Jackson to his Truth Social account.

“The bullet passed, coming less than a quarter of an inch from entering his head, and struck the top of his right ear. The bullet track produced a 2 cm wide wound that extended down to the cartilaginous surface of the ear,” Jackson writes. “There was initially significant bleeding, followed by marked swelling of the entire upper ear.”
Ronny goes on to claim that “there is still intermittent bleeding requiring a dressing to be in place.”
“Given the broad and blunt nature of the wound itself, no sutures were required,” he wrote. “It is an absolute miracle he wasn’t killed.”

However, basically no one was all that impressed by it:
New: Ronny Jackson is a conspiracy theorist who covered up Trump’s near-lethal COVID and who turned the White House into a pill mill. This is worth as much as toilet paper. https://t.co/WFNY5gJ8EZ

Love that self-imagined journalists are giving this as much credence as Trump’s propagandists. https://t.co/9Ap8E3CRxm

So Ronny L. Jackson, so called Pill Mill Doctor of the Trump’s White House, has released a letter stating Trump was hit by a bullet and he is evaluating Trump’s ear daily.
Americans need to hear directly from the team that the treated Trump about the ear wound.

“Given the broad and blunt nature of the wound itself, no sutures were required,”
Said Congressman Robert Ronnie Jackson of TX.Given how broadly and bluntly they lie, it’s not enough. Show us the original emergency room records.
What are they hiding? https://t.co/sy7gCKfe4K

This letter is laughable. Ronny Jackson is no longer a licensed physician, and is not the doctor who treated Trump in the hospital. Lol pic.twitter.com/nTDceNTrvi

Not good enough, Donald. Not even close to good enough.
