Trump sustained a minor injury to his ear in the incident, which he and his former White House physician, current Rep. Ronny Jackson, maintain was caused by the assassin's bullet.

Trump also lashed out at Wray, writing in another Truth Social post on Friday that the director's remarks were "so damaging to the Great People that work in the FBI."
