It isn’t surprising Rittenhouse is MAGA and a big Donald Trump supporter.
It isn’t surprising he is Blue Lives Matter.
It isn’t surprising at the age of 17 he is walking around with AR-15 and other military styles weapons.
It isn’t surprising cops offered him water and aid, so he felt invincible walking into a crowd of protesters to feel powerful.
Some in media are calling him a vigilante, but the reality he was created by Donald Trump.
The law enforcement–obsessed 17-year-old who was charged with shooting and killing two people and injuring another in Kenosha, Wisconsin, during protests for Jacob Blake appeared in the front row at a Donald Trump rally in January.
Kyle Howard Rittenhouse’s social media presence is filled with him posing with weapons, posting “Blue Lives Matter,” and supporting Trump for president. Footage from the Des Moines, Iowa, rally on Jan. 30 shows Rittenhouse feet away from the president, in the front row, to the left of the podium. He posted a TikTok video from the event.
Seven months later, Rittenhouse went with his rifle to the third night of Black Lives Matter protests in Kenosha after police shot Blake, a Black man who is now paralyzed as a result, according to his family. Rittenhouse attended as an armed vigilante, supposedly assisting police and protecting property in an unofficial capacity. Instead, he allegedly prowled the protest with a gun. Videos captured him fraternizing with law enforcement and attempting to get their attention.
Rittenhouse wrote “BLUE LIVES MATTER 🔵” and “Trump 2020 🇺🇸 🇺🇸” in his TikTok bio. BuzzFeed News has reached out to the Trump campaign for comment.
The crazy thing to me is that Trump doesn’t care about people like Rittenhouse. They are just pawns in his game of power.
He is a dictator and his followers are like a cult.
It is sick and destroying our country.
