Donald Trump criticized Christopher Wray after the FBI director cast doubt on whether what hit the Republican candidate in the ear in his Pennsylvania bombing was a bullet or shrapnel.

"No, it was, unfortunately, a bullet that hit my ear, and hit it hard. There was no glass, there was no shrapnel. The hospital called it a 'bullet wound to the ear,' and that is what it was," Trump wrote on Truth Social.

In a congressional appearance, Wray doubted what hit the Republican nominee on the rally stage.

"I think with respect to former President Trump, there’s some question about whether or not it’s a bullet or shrapnel that, you know, hit his ear," the FBI director said, in remarks reported by The Hill. Wray added that the investigation into the attack "remains ongoing."

Rep. Ronny Jackson, the physician for the Republican candidate during his presidential term, released a statement asserting that medical records and his direct observation of the wound cleared up any doubt that he had been shot.

Jackson also assured that the former president is "rapidly recovering."
