Good catch.  Peggy Hall suggested it was a Masonic ritual of some sort.

Note that Trump's SHOES were also removed.  Why?  Perhaps because they needed access to the big toe on his right foot.  Trump said the Secret Service guys hit him so hard his shoes came off.  "That's reasonable:  after all, in football, guys get tackled really hard and their shoes come off all the time."  NOT!

I submit the whole "assassination" thing was fake - Trump's life was never in danger.  But they did need a blood ritual - someone had to die, and the blood (presumably innocent) had to be "applied."  So innocent baby's blood in a vial, Trump is "shot at" but it was actually Corey Comperatore who was the target.  They wanted a Christian.  Corey was "on fire for Jesus" and he was offered special seating close to Trump.

The whole thing stinks.  It very much appears to me that it was staged, and Trump knew what he had to do.  When the shots rang out, he dove for cover.  One of the "Secret Service" guys was actually a Freemason, who had the vial of blood.  They pulled Trump down, anointed his ear with blood and also his toe.  Crooks was murdered as was Corey, and the "assassination hoax" was born.  There's a theory that Trump had a small vial of "fake blood" behind his ear - this "blood" did not oxidize.  I'd suspect the blood was real but was not Trump's.  And if you've followed the story, you see the bandage has been removed and there is no visible damage to Trump's ear.

I don't know how they persuaded Crooks to put himself in harm's way, what they told him or promised him.  But this hoax will be revealed eventually.

If you do a search on Freemason Presidents, you'll see that from Washington to Ford, we never went for long without a Mason in the Oval office.  Then, when Carter moved in, it basically stopped, though Ronald Reagan was made an honorary Freemason and Clinton was a member of the Masonic youth group Order of DeMolay.  But the Freemason's didn't lose power or interest; they went from overt to covert.
