I work at a hospital and have worked with hundreds of patients around his age. When you're that old, your skin is like paper thin and tears extremely easy. I've slid patients from one bed to another and tore skin. Donald Trump was tackled by secret service. Maybe it was his blood but I highly doubt he took a bullet or any shrapnel from glass or anything else.

Yeah... I'm willing to buy that he had immediate, top grade treatment, I'm willing to accept that the bullet barely grazed him and it bled a lot

But I'm not willing to believe he healed that fast or that perfectly. There's no notch from any angle, no scab, nothing - just a few days later there was no sign of it. And he was milking it for all he had... And yet, aside from that blood on the scene, all we ever saw was comically oversized bandages, then normal ones during more serious meetings, then nothing
