Former US President Donald Trump has congratulated 18-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse for his self-defense after his exoneration from the court.
According to a source, Rittenhouse has shot 3 men in Kenosha, Wisconsin using an AR-15-style rifle. During this incident, 2 men, including Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber died while Gaige Grosskreutz got seriously injured but survived.
Liz Harrington, a spokesperson for the former US president, has posted on a social media site that Donald Trump has congratulated Kyle Rittenhouse for being declared ‘innocent.
’ Furthermore, he said that if this action is not self-defense, then he wonders what is. After opening fire at three men in Wisconsin, Kyle claimed that he shot them in self-defense in front of the judges.
After the death of a black man last year, Donald Trump went to the city to take a look at the damage caused by civil unrest. This visit occurred in September 2020 after a police officer killed an innocent man, Jacob Blake.
It has been revealed that Kyle Rittenhouse was shaking uncontrollably after the court declared him innocent. He collapsed on his seat, hearing that he was free of any charges now and could walk out of the court as a free man. At the time of the incident, Rittenhouse was just 17. He went from Antioch, Illinois, to Kenosha, Wisconsin, on August 25, 2020.
During the protest, he was attacked by a mob resulting in him opening fire and shooting 3 men in order to save himself from getting killed.
Even though the president of The United States Of America has asked people to express their views peacefully after the horrible incident, it was pretty evident that people will not remain silent over what happened.
