RNC attendees sport ear bandages in support of Trump: ‘This is the newest fashion trend!’

Some attendees at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee are sporting makeshift ear bandages in support of almost-assassinated former President Donald Trump — with one calling it “the newest fashion trend.”

Trump, 78, emerged onto the convention floor Monday night sporting a distinctive white patch over his right ear, which was grazed by a bullet that narrowly missed his head during the shooting at his rally in Pennsylvania.

Before too long, others in the crowd had co-opted the look.

“This is the newest fashion trend!” delegate Joe Neglia, 63, of Arizona, told CBS News of the folded white envelope he taped across his own ear.

“I’m getting this going — everybody in the world is going to be wearing one of these pretty soon. It’s the latest thing,” he said.

“I’m setting new fashion ground here.”

Neglia said he “folded it up on the bus on the way here” in “sympathy with Donald Trump.”

“It’s just in sympathy with Donald Trump,” Neglia added in an interview with The Guardian.

“I saw that man get shot, I thought that man has almost given his life for his country, he deserves some respect for that,” he told the Guardian

Another Arizona delegate, Stacey Goodman, told The Hill that her paper war “bandage” was done “in solidarity with my president, Trump, not the current thing that’s in the administration.”

A video posted on X also captured a convention enthusiast dressed as Uncle Sam sporting an ear bandage that read “fight! fight! fight!” – the same words that Trump chanted seconds after the shooter opened fire on Saturday.

Trump survived the attempt on his life at a rally in Butler, Penn., when a gunman armed with an AR-15 style rifle fired eight shots from a nearby rooftop.

A former volunteer fire chief, Corey Comperatore, was killed and two other attendees were seriously injured.

The gunman, Thomas Matthew Crooks, was killed by Secret Service snipers.

Investigators are still scrambling to determine a motive for the attack.

Just two days after the near-miss, Trump electrified crowds with a surprise appearance on the convention floor.

He clinched the Republican nomination with a near-unanimous vote – and is expected to give his first post-shooting speech on Thursday , when he formally accepts the bid to become the next president of the United States.
