Trump said ear was ‘bleeding like a b‑‑‑‑’ after assassination attempt: Book

  • Last July, following an assassination attempt while speaking at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Donald Trump requested a brain CT scan.
  • Trump sought the scan because he believed it would show his brain was good, likening it to an IQ test amid his race against Joe Biden.
  • An excerpt from a new book shared by The Washington Post describes Trump walking with Secret Service agents to obtain a CT scan after his shooting, although doctors noted that such scans no longer produce those types of images.
  • Brain CT scans detect bleeding or tumors but do not measure intelligence, despite Trump’s obsession over IQ and cognitive ability questions faced by both candidates.
  • The episode reflects ongoing public scrutiny of Trump’s cognitive fitness and occurred amid broader political contests and controversies.
