    🤔 I don’t think that white line on the photo could be the bullet:

    The line is horizontal. The shot came from up on a roof and would have had at least some downward angle.

    More importantly, in the photo Trump’s hand is raised at about his shoulder level. If you check the video, both his hands were gripping the podium at the time of the shot that hit his ear. It’s after that shot (because he feels it), he first winces and only then raises his hand from the podium up to his ear. So it can’t be that one in the photo.

    His hand is up on his ear at the moment of the next shot. So it can’t be that one in the photo.

    Then as he lowers his hand there is a third shot, but by that time his shoulders are scrunched up and he’s starting to duck, his head is turned more away from the mike–which is not what we see in this photo. Then he continues going down.

    So that moment of the photo doesn’t seem to line up with the timing of any of the shots. The only way it might is if the sound track is not in sync with the video.
