Trump was standing at the podium at his rally on Saturday when suddenly, there was a crack. You could see Trump grab his ear, then immediately go to the ground. Seconds later, the Secret Service agents were all over him. 

They then surrounded him, and the Secret Service personnel with rifles swooped in and they got him up. Trump raised his fist in defiance, to indicate he was okay. There was some blood visible on the side of his face, but you could hear him say, "Get my shoes." So, he was with it enough to do that. 

The Secret Service than managed to walk him off the stage and get him into The Beast.
