The FBI released a statement saying that a “bullet, whether whole or fragmented,” had struck former President Donald Trump during the assassination attempt days after FBI Director Christopher Wray told lawmakers it was unclear if it was a bullet or shrapnel that struck Trump. CNN’s Chief Law Enforcement and Intelligence analyst John Miller reports, and former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe joins CNN’s Erin Burnett and gives his take. #CNN #news

    It is weird how some people are arguing over whether he was hit by a bullet or something else. Who cares? One person was killed and two others were hit too. Shouldn't the focus be on how this whole thing happened? This was a major screw up by Secret Service and local LE.
  • @shilpiengineers-yf3qj
    The quality of FBI can be understood if they unable to say what the difference between bullet and shrapnel is after two weeks. It looks like a cover up more than an investigation.
  • @stacynapier26
    They just can't handle the truth especially when it doesn't fit into their narrative.

    I’ve never seen such incompetence in my entire life a classroom of 10 year olds could do a better job
  • @ndzi_karl
    Still hard to believe that such failure could occur at this level of security at the secret service

    The parents, hired attorneys and are not talking as you reported

    Did Trump make the doctors sign an NDA?
  • @Ixaglet
    shrapnel from what? The bullet just disintegrated in mid air for no reason?
  • @just_janen_1196
    It was stupid for the FBI director to make that statement to begin with casting doubt on what happened that day
  • @jonbeck8540
    We should make up a new language and not tell CNN
  • @tln694
    How the hell does a shrapnel hit from a bullet😮😮
  • @Zman5146
    I guess the shooter was shooting at cat ladies...
  • @Chiliongiggs
    Instead of using his time to investigate the repeated failure, he is wasting time arguing about whether it was a bullet or not? What a joke.
  • @DZ-zc3gi
    Wray went political. He has to go. It is unexcusable not knowing basic stuff like the timeline and who talked to whom after that many days.
  • @Kahneisha
    So sad. How much dumber is it going to get?
  • @krr104
    What happened? Between praying to my lord and savior sweet fauci and drinking his juice to protect me, I saw the headlines said Trump fell down after hearing loud noises and secret service had to interrupt his rally to help him off the stage.
