In leaked footage of Trump’s recent phone call with RFK Jr., the former president recounted the moment that gunfire broke out at his campaign rally over the weekend.

Video recording of a private phone call between presidential candidates Donald Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was leaked on social media this week, offering a first-person account of how Trump remembers his July 13 assassination attempt.

In the video, which was first shared on X (then later deleted) by RFK Jr.’s son, Bobby Kennedy III, Trump can be heard recalling his conversation with President Joe Biden after the shooting.

“It was very nice actually,” Trump told Kennedy. “[Biden] called me, and he said, ‘How did you choose to move to the right?’” (Trump turned his head to the right just before the gunman fired at him, a move that may have saved his life by only causing injuries to his ear.)

“I said, ‘I was just showing a chart,’” Trump continued. “I didn’t have to tell him the chart was on all the people pouring into our country.”

Trump told Kennedy that the injury — which the former president has attributed to a bullet — “felt like the world’s largest mosquito,” and expressed his shock when he found out that the gunman fired an AR-15, saying “those are big guns.”

In an interview with the New York Post on Sunday, July 14, Trump expressed gratitude for his Secret Service detail and called the attempted assassination a day earlier “a very surreal experience.”

“I’m not supposed to be here, I’m supposed to be dead,” he said.

While Trump was speaking at a campaign rally in Butler County, Pa., on July 13, gunfire broke out. Trump was ushered off the stage with blood streaming down from his ear; a bystander in the audience was killed and two more were seriously injured.

The gunman, who was shot dead by Secret Service agents, has since been identified as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, a registered Republican. A motive for the shooting has not yet been determined.
