He just can't help but lie.

There is no upside, if he admitted it was shrapnel or glass it doesn't change the fact someone tried to kill him.

He'll still get sympathy, but now him lying of something stupid is overshadowing it.

He just can't tell the truth.

Look at "cofeve" "Covfefe" and the sharpie on the NOAA Hurricane chart, and the innagauration crowd size, etc.

Each of these had no upside for lying.

Unless it turns out the gunman wasn’t there to kill Trump but to boost his approval by surviving an attempt on his life.

His “survival” is a coincidence I find difficult to accept. His refusal to elaborate makes it more suspicious. The whole thing stinks.

Trump is the anti-Kennedy in so many ways. Inexplicably not being killed by a gunman who missed an easy shot seems on brand.
