What were the two presidential candidates talking about?
When President Trump called me I was taping with an in-house videographer.
I should have ordered the videographer to stop recording immediately, Kennedy wrote onX Tuesday.

I am mortified that this was posted.
I apologize to the president.
I agree with you, man.
Somethings wrong with that whole system, Trump can be heard saying from the start of the video.
Kennedy replies with yeah before Trump continues with, …and its the doctors you find.
Remember I said I want to do small doses.
Trump can be heard saying.
Its massive and then you see the baby all of a sudden starting to change radically.
Ive seen it too many times.
And then you hear that it doesnt have an impact, right?
But you and I talked about that a long time ago.
The speculation, of course, is that Kennedy would join Trump in some capacity if he retakes power.
And were gonna win.
Were gonna win.
Were way ahead of the guy.
He was very nice actually.
He called and he said, How did you choose to move to the right?, Trump said.
I said, I was just showing a chart.
I didnt have to tell him the chart was on all the people pouring into our country, right?
I just turned my head to show the chart and something rapped me, Trump continues.
And it sounds like a giant… like the worlds largest mosquito.
And, uh, it was.
It was a bullet going round.
What do they call it?
An AR-15 or something.
That was a big gun.
Thats a pretty tough gun.
Kennedy said as much during an appearance on Joe Rogans podcast back in June, as Zadroznynotes on X.
But Kennedy still denies that he has any plans to drop out of the race and endorse Trump.
Trump currently leads Biden 42.4% to 40.3% in the latest polling average fromFiveThirtyEight.
Kennedy is polling at 9%, a number thats been fairly consistent for months.
Neither Kennedys campaign nor Trumps campaign immediately responded to emailed questions on Tuesday.
