RFK Jr apologises after leaked phone call in which Trump seems to offer deal

Independent candidate's son posts video online in which Republican also rambles about vaccines, horses and babies

The independent presidential candidate Robert F Kennedy Jr apologised to Donald Trump on Tuesday, after Kennedy's son posted video and audio of a call between the two men in which Trump made bizarre remarks about vaccines and babies, as well as appearing to offer Kennedy some sort of political deal.

When President Trump called me I was taping with an in-house videographer," Kennedy said. I should have ordered the videographer to stop recording immediately. I am mortified that this was posted. I apologise to the president."
