Surely the real point is that Trump's small scratch on his ear shouldn't matter to anyone with a functioning brain? On the same day as the obese orange pathological liar suffered a very minor inconvenience, 87 US citizens died by gun violence including 3 children. None of them were surrounded by a close protection team and none of them were spashed across news headlines around the world. But that's the real story: the USA's total inability to face up to its insane gun laws. No one should give a damn about whether bullets were moving "too fast" or any other aspect of the non-event. People should give a very large damn indeed about the USA's annual 35,000 gun death foll. Even if the news media deems it to be too boring to talk about.
