You're suggesting that Donald Trump, of all people, willingly put himself in front of a gun and allowed himself to be SHOT AT to increase his street cred.
There were ACTUAL bullets flying at him, as evidenced by the DEAD MAN who was sitting behind him.
Now you're assuming I think things I didn't even write.
No, of course Trump didn't allow a shot to be taken anywhere near his head. You are certainly correct that he's a very self-regarding person unlikely to put himself in harm's way (another reason the "fight fight fight" fistpump is incongruent with the presence of a genuine threat). What we saw on his ear was just stage blood.
It's already emerged that there were men with guns in the building directly underneath Crooks, one of them probably fired some rounds into the crowd to give the scene believability. I doubt Crooks was even allowed to get on top of that building and point a rifle with live rounds anywhere in Trump's direction.

You are truly insane.
