In a brief statement issued Friday night via his political action committee, former President Donald Trump offered his support for Kyle Rittenhouse, who was acquitted of homicide and four other felony counts in a Kenosha, Wisconsin, courtroom earlier in the day.
In sum, Trump had this to say: "Congratulations to Kyle Rittenhouse for being found INNOCENT of all charges. It's called being found NOT GUILTY—And by the way, if that's not self defense, nothing is!"
