Mmm. There's another image out there with one of the SS guys wiping his face with a white cloth as he was stood up and you can see the smear on his cheek where it has been wiped. I think the cloth (might have been a linen hanky, which hopefully the SS guy hadn't blown his nose on previously) that image was actually shown on TV.

Trump does tend to exaggerate a little a times though. :-) Or it might have seemed there was more blood to him when it happened especially if it went inside his ear. As for no ear shot from the people with phones, this is the Instagram generation, they were probably not paying attention and scrolling social media most of the time rather than listening to him. Many have said the shots sounded like fireworks so maybe they just didn't know what was happening at first.
