      lol:

      Crooks tried out for his school’s rifle team but failed to make it because he was a “comically bad shot” and made jokes deemed inappropriate with firearms around, two former classmates told The New York Post.

      He missed his target by close to 20ft, Jameson Murphy said.

      “He tried out…and was such a comically bad shot he was unable to make the team and left after the first day,” he added.

        Don’t know why you’re being downvoted. I thought that the current theory was that his ear was cut by a glass shard from a teleprompter.

        Has that been disproven?

            Newsmax is the only place actually reporting on it. All other articles I see talking about it use Newsmax as a source.

            Axios briefly offered validation on this theory, and then retracted.

            So I guess if you believe this, you would have to first consider Newsmax to be a credible source…
