When I saw this, I thought back to when Trump had a little run in the professional wrestling WWE. Shaved Vince McMahon's head and did some shit in the ring.
I remember hearing that some wrestling promotions would want to have visible, real bleeding in their matches. Early ECW achieved this by actually fucking each other up with barbed wire and glass and shit...
But the old trick is that they wear little sweatbands on both of their wrists, and there's a tiny blade tucked into one of them. So, they fake getting kicked in the head and really sell it, falling to the ground in agony, both hands on their face. The camera angle cuts suddenly, the other wrestler is walking around the ring playing to the crowd. The other guy finally gets up, and his eyebrow is cut, bleeding onto his face.
Trump grabbed at his ear (likely having an earpiece in) because he heard the CRACK of the bullet that missed him. Then he was dragged down out of sight for quite a while (good thing there wasn't another shooter, dumping bullets into the pile of secret service agents on top of Trump). Perhaps he made the decision to "sell it", just like in fucking pro wrestling, and somehow had someone give his ear a little cut.
