He cited Trump’s “bad” direction on the Second Amendment as his “issue” with the convicted ex-president
“If he was a true supporter of the Second Amendment then why did his Secret Service detail gun down another patriotic AR-15 owner just for exercising his freedoms??”

Oops! Crybaby Rittenhouse does instant about-face after snubbing Donald Trump

Welp, looks like someone got a spanking today.
Last night, Kyle Rittenhouse snuck on a pair of big-boy pants and sassed his MAGA cult leader, saying in a video that he wouldn’t be voting for Donald Trump, but would instead cast a write-in vote for Sen. Ron Paul. He cited Trump’s “bad” direction on the Second Amendment as his “issue” with the convicted ex-president, and said there would be “no take-backs.” (See video below, posted by Ron Filipkowski.)
Less than 24 hours later, however, the gun-slinging crybaby wet his diaper and took it all back.
“My comments made last night were ill-informed and unproductive,” Rittenhouse — who killed two protestors and injured a third in Kenosha, Wisconsin — Xitted today. “I’m 100% behind Donald Trump and encourage every gun owner to join me in helping send him back to the White House.” (See post below, reposted by Ron Filipkowski.)
Of course, hundreds of commenters were quick with the punchlines. “He realized he can’t get a job that doesn’t rely on milking the cult,” said one, while another joked, “Translation: I can’t get into a college, I’m completely unemployable, and I’ve just realized I’ve effed the golden goose.”

“Kyle right before tweeting that recant: We will not be going to Chuck E. Cheese [along with famous blubbering-Kyle gif]” yukked another.
But the comment that sums up Rittenhouse and the rest of Trump’s Kool-Aid drinking disciples best: “You can check out anytime you want, but you can never leave.”
Dunno why I bother, what a crap story.

If he’s really, really repentant, Trump’s people might even try to find a job for him. After all, implementing Project 2025 will require thousands of underqualified zealots who know that they owe everything to Cheeto Mussolini.

He says Ron Paul in the video, the 88 year old former congressman, House of Rep, not Senator. His son, Rand Paul, is the senator.

And those with skeletons in the closet and/or who are just plain horrible are prime candidates for positions under Trump, that way he can totally control them.

He’s entirely dependent on MAGA money.

The only thing he is, and ever will be, is shooty-bang-bang boy, and he can’t even do that consistently.

He’s not the first person from that end of the political spectrum to say something against the Great Orange Messiah and then be swiftly brought to heel and have to recant.
I don’t know if they need to have anything specific on them (although in Lindsey Graham’s case, I wonder). I think the risk of loss of income if they get thrown off the MAGA gravy train might be sufficient by itself. Failing that, the sudden flood of death threats from the hard-core faithful may be enough to change their minds.
This is not the kind of cult that you can publicly walk away from. Dissent will not be tolerated.
