To be fair, they need the bandage just as much as trump does.
Like. A day or two after the attempt he was out golfing and didn't have a bandage or anything.
I think it was just a small nick and the blood thinners he's likely on just makes you bleed like crazy since they prevent clotting. A small scratch looks like a war wound, and would explain why there was blood everywhere but he still has a functional ear.
Like, if he really got shot in the ear, he'd be missing a part of his ear like in Preacher. It won't just heal back.
Dude got a scratch and is playing it up.

LOL what the fuck. i've never seen a more subservient bitchass group of bootlicking sheep than republicans
They really are strange.
Apparently, the other people are sheep. These are the free-thinking freedom loving people! /s
Dear God man ... this is crazy cringe.

Don't they know a bandage on the right ear means you are gay?
I guess I will explain it for people
This is actually a thing…with piercings
Getting the right ear pieced, also called the gay ear, is a way to signal to others that you are gay. I have no idea if it’s still a thing but growing up if you were getting a piercing the rule was left or both
I have two in my right, one in my left, and have been told many times that its the same thing. More in the right ear apparently makes me gay. Im definitely straight, but I kept my piercings like this for the last 15 years, and wouldnt you know it, the only people telling me thats gay are other straight people. This is certainly just personal experiences, but my personal experience is that its not a 'gay rule' as much as its a 'homophobe rule.' Like you said, pretty sure it was a style or signal in the gay community in the 80s or something, but any more it just feels like an urban legend perpetuated by bigots.

So they're fine with cloth on the face as long as it's completely unnecessary?
Seems everyone should have realized by now what a weak, sad, and pathetic group the Republican party is.

I can’t decide if this is more or less weird than wearing a diaper in support of Trum…no…it’s less weird…right?

You think if the shooter hadn't missed they'd be removing their heads in solidarity?

Cult.
Devils advocate for the heck of it. Gonna be submerged in bad rep for this.
This is comparative to people wearing "I can't breathe" signs after Floyd or waving a pride flag to show solidarity. You just give them shit because you do t agree with them.
Sure they are all fucking stupid for not seeing the obvious flaws in their idol. But giving them shit for a pretty rational way of showing support to their idol is not the right use of your energy.
You are participating in the fragmentation of your nation by pouring your hate into simple stuff like this.
For all I care go ahead. I'm European.
Hear me out, showing solidarity to a slave owner attacked by his slave is different than showing solidarity to a slave who was just beaten. The power dynamic should not be ignored

Laughing at idiots is never not the right use of my energy, thank you very much.

I'll feel guilty about it when it isn't fascists I'm fragmenting out of my country. If anything, I'm proud to make those fucks uncomfortable in my country.
Who's giving them shit for the way they are showing their support and not just for who they are supporting? 🤨
If you support a tyrannical moron, even if the way you show it is rational, I'm still gonna give you shit for supporting a tyrannical moron.
The method of showing support might be similar to something like the George Floyd demonstrations. But I'm not giving them shit for their method, I'm doing it because of who they're showing support for. If somebody wore a bandage on their ear in solidarity with an innocent person who was shot in that spot by cops, I'd applaud them.
And as for fragmenting our nation, there is no tolerance available for fascists and their supporters. They choose to split us apart when they vote for someone like Trump who targets the vulnerable in our society.

This timeline is so broken. I can't believe that the USA may well vote this idocracy into power.
America:
FFS. They really are willing to eat his shit straight from his asshole.
Posers. REAL Trump fans would have a friend shoot their ear with an AR from range first.
/s, obviously. We all know they don't have friends.
Van Gogh enthusiasts are outraged.
And Kyle Gass can't crack a mild joke about it...
As a nurse this bandage trump showed up with looks totally like it is for show only. I would bet real money, that no healthcare professional was near this bandage and it was probably a PR person who ~~sticked~~ stuck this on him.

First diaper-wearing now this.
Imagine how mortifying it would be to have a legitimate ear injury this week.

Not like politicians were listening to us anyway, no need to cover your ears.
This is just weird

But are they doing it after shooting their ears with an AR-15* and my soon-to-be-sold commemorative 5.56mm Trump bullets (with tiny Trump fistbump engraving on the casing)? /s
