(Crankers) Donald Trump slammed the opposing lawyers and claimed Kyle Rittenhouse was subjected to “prosecutorial misconduct”
“He’s a really good young guy,” said Trump.” Just left Mar-a-Lago a little while ago, and he should never have been put through that. That was prosecutorial misconduct, and it’s happening all over the United States right now with the Democrats.”
Trump also added: “[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.”
Rittenhouse said during a “Tucker Carlson Tonight” episode that he was an innocent 17-year-old who was violently attacked and needed to defend himself, continuing: “I feel my life has been extremely defamed … I don’t think I would be able to go out and get a job and not have to deal with harassment. But I’m at a place now … where I have to have people with me because people want to kill me just because I defended myself – and they’re too ignorant to look at the facts of what happened … I see some of the threats. Some of the things people say it’s absolutely sickening.”
Donald Trump criticized the media for selling “fake news” and saying that they are the “enemy of the people.
“They are the enemy of the people and we could have a country that would be able to heal and get together, except the media foments it. They’re so corrupt. The fake news [media], but it’s really the corrupt news. It’s corrupt what they do, I had to devote a lot of time to fake investigations. People have gotten wise to it … and it’s just a shame.”
