Kyle Rittenhouse has a message for President Joe Biden.
Asked what his reaction is to Biden calling him a “white supremacist” in a 2020 campaign ad, Rittenhouse told Fox News’ Tucker Carlson, “Mr. President, if I could say one thing to you, I would urge you to go back and watch the trial, and understand the facts before you make a statement.”
He added, “It’s actual malice; defaming my character for him to say something like that.”

A picture of Rittenhouse was shown in a video that Biden previously tweeted out where he wrote that then-President Donald Trump “refused to disavow white supremacists on the debate stage.”
When asked why Biden labeled Rittenhouse a white supremacist, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said during a press briefing last week, “What I’m not going to speak to right now is anything about an ongoing trial, nor the president’s past comments. What I can reiterate for you is the president’s view that we shouldn’t have, broadly speaking, vigilantes patrolling our communities with assault weapons.”
