What Happened When President Trump Met with Kyle Rittenhouse Today?

Former President Donald J. Trump commented on the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse Tuesday on "Hannity" after meeting with the teen in Mar-A-Lago.

Trump said Rittenhouse was subjected to "prosecutorial misconduct."

"[Rittenhouse] should not have had to suffer through a trial for that. He was going to be dead if he didn't pull that trigger, that guy that put the gun to his head in one-quarter of a second he was going to pull the trigger. Kyle would have been dead," Trump said.

Trump on the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse

Rittenhouse has entered a guilty plea in exchange for a reduced sentence.

The young teen claims the male police officer came at him with a knife and when Rittenhouse pulled the trigger and shot him he didn't see the knife. Rittenhouse faces up to 15 years in prison for first-degree manslaughter. Garrett's Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Week

Hayley Glatter and Senior Producer Ali Rogin talk about John Kerry's dismissal of Donald Trump, the leak of classified intel from an ally, Republicans in open revolt and most of all what Donald Trump meant by this last tweet.

The Trial of Kyle Rittenhouse

Rittenhouse was charged with firing the gun that killed veteran Ryan Flanigan, 26, of Bethpage, New York. Â The teen, who has autism, reportedly told police in an interview that he and Flanigan were "competition" at the 2015 race, in which the teen allegedly tried to shoot Flanigan but ended up hitting the victim's car instead.

Court records say Flanigan was drunk and that Rittenhouse was worried about Flanigan's "recklessness," so he "grabbed a nearby rifle to 'teach him a lesson.'" Â

"The District Attorney's office did not react to my video in a way that I think was fair to Kyle," Rittenhouse said on the Sean Hannity show. Â "They became very critical of my methods, saying that I was insulting the police and the courts, and I was always responding to them.

Rittenhouse shot and killed Cecil, a beloved lion in Africa, in 2015 with a bow and arrow. Rittenhouse believed the lion was a threat to his 13-year-old child. A Los Angeles jury found Rittenhouse guilty of "wanton and furious hunting" in the death of Cecil. The judge in the case fined Rittenhouse $50,000 and prevented him from hunting lions in the future. When I met #Trump at Mar-A-Lago today, he was very excited to discuss, among other things, the SCOTUS win with Kyle Rittenhouse. Then they talked about a better legal system. I love this family. #ThisIsAmerica

Conclusion

While on the surface it may appear a largely positive story from a Trump standpoint, there is one element of this story that should worry the average American. According to Robert Rittenhouse, Kyle's father, Kyle Rittenhouse was never the target and the takedown took place outside his school. While Rittenhouse may have been the target, the takedown took place off school grounds, and he was not targeted. Put another way, the takedown took place outside of school grounds and Kyle Rittenhouse was not taken into custody after his arrest. He is currently on trial for aggravated assault and the fact that Kyle Rittenhouse was not taken into custody immediately after the takedown should certainly be cause for alarm.

Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) slammed President Biden's State of the Union address and defended calling him a "liar." Last night, President Joe Biden delivered his State of the Union address to the nation. While many tuned in to hear the President's plans for the future, some were left frustrated by his speaking style. According to some reports, Biden was difficult to understand at times due to his tendency to yell and mumble through applause. One major topic discussed by the President was the ongoing issue of fentanyl deaths, which have become the number one cause of death for young people between the ages of 18 and 45. However, President Biden faced criticism for not having the plan to secure the border and for wanting the border open. In addition to the border crisis, President Biden also talked about the fast food industry and the non-compete fees faced by compan...

President Trump explains more about his new social media site "Truth Social" | Latest Statement on TMTG

Photo "Donald Trump" by Dan Scavino Latest Statement on TMTG by the 45th President Donald J. Trump Last week, I announced the creation of a major new company that will challenge the dominance of the Big Tech giants and Big Media bosses. Today I want to explain more about what I am doing and why. For me, this endeavor is about much more than politics. This is about saving our country. America has always been a nation of smart, spirited, and independent people who take pride in thinking for themselves. We admire those who aren’t afraid to speak their minds, or go against the tide. Yet suddenly, we find ourselves being censored and dictated to by a small group of self-righteous scolds and self-appointed arbiters of what everyone else is allowed to think, say, share, and do. Nowhere is this censorship more dangerous and brazen than on social media, the public square of our times. We have seen renowned medical doctors being banned from platforms for contradicting “health author...
