Ex-Republican concerned Trump is hiding medical report after attack

It has been four days since Donald Trump came inches from death after a failed assassination attempt, and the campaign still hasn't released any kind of medical report talking about the injuries.

While Washington is at work trying to uncover failures by the U.S. Secret Service on Saturday, the ex-president is walking around the Republican Convention with a giant pad of gauze and tape covering his ear.

This raised concerns from Rep. Joe Walsh (R-IL), a former Tea Party Republican who has since turned against Trump and the MAGA movement.

"No medical reports," posted Walsh. "No doctor’s statements. No information at all on the Republican nominee for President who was shot and injured four days ago. That’s just wrong. Shitty job media. If it were the Democratic nominee who’d been shot, [Sean] Hannity, et al, would be blowing a gasket."

“Trump has posted that his ear was pierced by a bullet, but the sad fact is that he’s an unreliable source. News organizations need to wait for more credible confirmation of what happened,” wrote journalist Steven Beschloss on Saturday.

Questions have surfaced asking whether the bullet pierced Trump's ear, grazed it, or broke a piece of the TelePrompter and the glass that shot out at Trump's ear.

Ex-prosecutor and commentator John Flannery asked, "Was it a bullet or shrapnel from a teleprompter - hey Don, release your medical records."

"It's been almost 90 hours since the first assassination attempt on a president or former president in more than four decades, and we still don't have any info from medical experts who have examined Donald Trump," said writer Charlotte Clymer. "No interviews, pressers, or statements. Nothing. Isn't that weird?"

"For 2 weeks media talked about Biden's health non-stop after a bad debate. Are we ever going to get a medical report on Trump, since the GOP claims he was 'shot in the face'? Even though it was a minor injury, it's traumatic to be shot at. Where's the mental health check?" asked investigative reporter Victoria Brownworth.

National security lawyer Bradley Moss also found it odd.

"It has been several days since Trump was injured. No medical reports. No statements from doctors. Nothing," he said on X.
"And the media is barely talking about it, instead discussing an imaginary 'pivot'."
