Former Trump Doctor Blasts FBI Director Over Suggestion Trump Was Not Hit By Bullet During Assassination Attempt

Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX) ripped into FBI Director Christopher Wray on Friday over his suggestion that former President Donald Trump was not struck by a bullet earlier this month during an assassination attempt during a rally in Pennsylvania.

In an open letter posted on social media, Jackon, who was Trump’s doctor when he was president, reprimanded Wray over his congressional testimony where he said that it was unclear what hit Trump’s ear. Jackson said that medical records and his own examination confirmed that Trump had been hit by a bullet.

“The would-be assassin fired multiple rounds from a relatively close distance using a high-powered rifle, with one bullet striking the former President, and now the Republican Nominee for President, in his right ear,” Jackson wrote. Two others were injured during the attack and 50-year-old Corey Comperatore was killed.

During his testimony on Wednesday, Wray said that Trump may have been hit by shrapnel or glass and not a bullet.

“There is absolutely no evidence that it was anything other than a bullet,” Jackson wrote on Friday. “Congress should correct the record as confirmed by both the hospital and myself. Director Wray is wrong and inappropriate to suggest anything else.”

Jackson also gave an update on Trump’s health in the letter, saying that he was doing well.

“As such, I want to reassure the American people and the rest of the world, that President Trump is doing extremely well,” Jackson said. “He is rapidly recovering from the gunshot wound to his right ear. I will continue to be available to assist President Trump and his personal physician in any way they see fit and will provide updates as necessary and with the permission of President Trump.”

Trump also sharply criticized Wray on Thursday, hitting him for his handling of the FBI.

“FBI Director Christopher Wray told Congress yesterday that he wasn’t sure if I was hit by shrapnel, glass, or a bullet (the FBI never even checked!), but he was sure that Crooked Joe Biden was physically and cognitively ‘uneventful’ – Wrong!” Trump posted on Truth Social. “That’s why he knows nothing about the terrorists and other criminals pouring into our Country at record levels. His only focus is destroying J6 Patriots, Raiding Mar-a-Lago, and saving Radical Left Lunatics, like the ones now in D.C. burning American flags and spray painting over our great National Monuments – with zero retribution.”
