Former MSNBC host Touré caused an uproar on CNN this week when he said that Trump was ‘supposedly’ shot in the ear during a segment on the CNN News Night panel show.
He was immediately called out by Scott Jennings, the lone conservative voice on the network.
This moment is a reminder that there are people on the left who actually believe the assassination attempt on Trump in Pennsylvania last summer was staged. It’s utter insanity.
Mediaite has details:
A CNN panel exploded on Thursday after one guest claimed President Donald Trump “supposedly got shot,” leading to Scott Jennings demanding an immediate correction.
On CNN NewsNight, Abby Phillip had to wrangle control of her panel after podcaster Touré exclaimed that Trump “supposedly” was shot in July 2024 in Butler, Pennsylvania. The comment came during a discussion about the president’s health…
Elrod also brought up the point that Trump appeared to forget that he appointed Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell.
“He supposedly got shot in the ear. We never heard from his doctors about that,” Touré added, immediately setting off Jennings, a senior CNN correspondent, and conservative pundit Ben Ferguson.
“Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Did you say supposedly?” Jennings asked, then pointing to the podcaster next to him and saying, “Abby, Abby,” to the panel’s anchor.

The look on Jennings’ face throughout that segment says it all. Isn’t it funny how the left loves to accuse people on the right of being conspiracy theorists while embracing ideas like the one on display here? They think nothing is out of bounds as long as it’s about Trump. There are no limits on their craziness.
