Not to mention, the skill needed to wing his ear (or hit the glass that winged his ear) at that distance without wanting to kill him in the process, it would probably be beyond the capability of a marksman this young.
Doing a shot like that reliably would be beyond the capability of any marksman.
There are, perhaps, some out there who could do it most of the time, but I don’t think there’s a single one ever who could count on it as a 100% thing.
I honestly doubt there are more than a handful of marksmen alive who could reliably make that shot consistently enough that Trump would trust his life to them. There’s no fucking way that bloody ear came from a bullet, nevermind the collateral trauma his head would have experienced if it had. The scenario I’ve heard that seems most plausible is that his ear scraped against an SS agent’s holster as they were getting him out of the way.

He needed to be close but not too close. That was his failure - damn near took him out on accident.
