Didn't Trump say that no American troops were injured in the attack?

Weird.

basically making a joke about it.

The Pentagon clearly passed on false information to the press (never mind Trump's initial lie), there is no plausible case to be made that this was accidental.

While some of the injuries may have been delayed in getting diagnosed or reported, the numbers now are large enough to destroy any reasonable chance that they have not knowingly and purposely disseminated false information.

I once did design work for the VA at a facility that treated traumatic brain injury patients. The design guidelines had provisions that were intended to make suicide more difficult. Several noted NFL players who have taken their own lives were diagnosed with TBI. Some of these victims will die from their “headaches”.

"The total of 50 injured soldiers might not even be the final tally, according to the Pentagon statement. CNN cited Defense Department officials who said that the count may increase again at some point. About 200 U.S. troops who were in the “blast zone” when the Iranian rockets hit have already been screened for symptoms of traumatic brain injuries."
