There seems to be a mind-boggling collapse in Americans' ability to understand the concept of speech acts. When the president makes a declaration, that's not "mere" words. The statement constitutes a foreign policy action. I feel like I'm going crazy here. Nobody has ever not understood this before

Also, considering the phrase "following the incident," it's possible that what they're describing is a bruise he received from falling on some ice later on.

"Internal bleeding to the torso" is a nonsense phrase, and as someone else pointed out, what they are almost certainly describing is a bruise.

Rogan expressed a lot of reservations about Trump in the run up to the election then endorsed him with a statement that literally said "well, that's what Elon wants." I think it's pretty safe to say the man has no firm convictions and can't be relied on to take action in support of anything he says.

He'll only maintain this opinion until Daddy Elon tells him otherwise, though.
