Looks like Kyle Rittenhouse is already regretting turning on Trump.
After facing (deserved) backlash over flipping on Trump after everything he’s been through, Kyle Rittenhouse is taking it all back.
Less than 12 hours after posting a video with a terrible take on Trump (we reported on this earlier, but essentially, Rittenhouse said he will not be supporting Trump because he is “not pro-gun enough”), Kyle posted an update on X calling his comments “ill-informed and unproductive.”
He said that he had “a series of productive conversations with members of Trump’s team” and is now backing our president once again.

Over the past 12 hours, I've had a series of productive conversations with members of the Trump's team and I am confident he will be the strong ally gun owners need to defend our Second Amendment rights.
My comments made last night were ill-informed and unproductive. I'm 100%…

Fox News commented:
Less than 12 hours after his initial post on X, Kyle Rittenhouse took back his comment saying he was going to write in Ron Paul because “Trump was not pro-gun enough.”
ADVERTISEMENT“Hi, I’m Kyle Rittenhouse, outreach director for Texas Gun Rights. A lot of people are upset that I said that I am going to be writing in Ron Paul for President of the United States, and that is true. I will be writing in Ron Paul,” Rittenhouse posted in a video on his X account.
Rittenhouse continued his video by explaining his reasoning for not backing Donald Trump for president.
“Unfortunately, Donald Trump had bad advisors making him bad on the Second Amendment and that is my issue. If you can not be completely uncompromisable on the Second Amendment, I will not vote for you and I will write somebody else in,” Rittenhouse vowed. “We need champions for the Second Amendment or our rights will be eaten away and eroded each day. I support my decision and I have no takebacks.”
Rittenhouse commented on the post, “You must stand by your principles.”
He then made another post saying “No compromise means no compromise.”
However, less than 12 hours later, Rittenhouse pinned a new post to the top of his X account claiming he had talked to Trump’s team and was taking back his comments.
“Over the past 12 hours, I’ve had a series of productive conversations with members of the Trump’s team and I am confident he will be the strong ally gun owners need to defend our Second Amendment rights,” Rittenhouse said.
“My comments made last night were ill-informed and unproductive. I’m 100% behind Donald Trump and encourage every gun owner to join me in helping send him back to the White House,” he continued.
What do you think?
Do you think his flip-flop BACK to Trump is genuine? Do you trust him?
Here was our original report in case you missed it:
WATCH: Kyle Rittenhouse FLIPS On Trump (Plus Lin Wood!)
Kyle Rittenhouse just turned full rat….
He released this video slamming President Trump and backing….Ron Paul?
Bad move Kyle, but I hope you enjoyed your 15 minutes of fame?
Watch the statement here:

Rittennhouse claims he is trashing Trump because Trump has a bad record on the 2nd Amendment.
What a laughable take!
President Trump is the most pro-gun President we’ve ever had!
He then continued by posting this garbage:

So….what’s going on?
It’s actually pretty simple.
If you pay close attention, Rittenhouse didn’t even make the announcement on his own profile.
He let “Dudley Brown” post it.
So who’s Dudley Brown?
Dom Lucre breaks it all down:

🔥🚨EXPOSED: Kyle Rittenhouse has been working with Rocky Mountain Gun Owners, a gun lobby ran by serial Trump hater Dudley Brown.
ADVERTISEMENTRocky Mountain Gun is the Colorado affiliate of the National Association for Gun Rights. The national organization helped fund Rittenhouse amid his legal case when he “was in trouble.”b
Rittenhouse announcement for not voting for Trump was actually posted by Dudley Browm first. That post is still on Kyle’s page.
This company has a history of spending tens of thousands of dollars against Pro Trump candidates.
Rittenhouse has spoke for Rocky Mountain Gun Owners at multiple venues and events, he is even seen wearing their shirt during his speeches and appearances.
Just go to Dudley Brown’s Twitter page and search “Kyle” after that search “Trump”
I personally believe Rittenhouse is being taken advantage of, he was young; easy to control and in need of help, whoever paid his debts are stilling asking for interest and his opinions and voice has been manipulated into forcing him to push things he dont believe.
Everything Rittenhouse said in the video looks like a tweet from Dudley Brown, Brown is even present in promotional footage that isn’t hosted by Rocky Mountain Gun Owners.
Is that random? You be the judge.
Ahhh, now it all starts to make sense!
So sad to see Rittenhouse taken advantage of like this by a butt-hurt “Never Trumper”.
Kyle, you’re better than this, or at least you should be.
You’re smarter than this, or at least I hoped you would be.
Catturd gets it:
After all what President Trump and his supporters did for him?
Unfollowed, forgotten, backstabber, sellout. https://t.co/nGHl14oG4j

Meanwhile, it’s already going very badly for him, losing Chad Prather at his 9/12 event:
Oh well, Kyle I regret to inform you that I will no longer be one of your guests on September 12 at the TXGR event. I reckon you can write in someone else. This was not the way, bud. pic.twitter.com/8FjZM1a6Sg

If I had to guess, I would say all support for Rittenhouse is going to dry up very quickly.
Hope it was worth it!
Hope “Dudley Brown” gives you all the support you just lost from MAGA, because you’re going to need it.
ilDonaldo published the best response video:
But if you’ve been paying attention, we really shouldn’t be surprised by this, should we?
Do you remember back a few years all the help Lin Wood gave him, only to have him turn on Lin Wood and stab him in the back?
I do.
It was super strange — but we should have known back then.
Kyle Rittenhouse tells Charlie Kirk and Jack Posobiec about Lin Wood: "He's just off his rails. Insane. He needs to get on meds or something."

And:
I'd LOVE to see Kyle Rittenhouse sue the pants off the corporate media. But he tells me who his team is going after first:
"We're going to focus on Lin Wood and John Pierce." pic.twitter.com/y43wAShKXS

I’ve covered Lin Wood for years now, and I’ve never once found anything offensive about the guy.
He seems genuine, straight-forward, he speaks a lot about his faith in Jesus Christ, he has an incredible career where he’s accomplished so much for so many people (including Kyle Rittenhouse), and yet he gets a lot of hate and backstabbing.
Until I see a reason to dislike Lin Wood, I’m going to continue to be on Team Lin Wood.
And I would suggest that Kyle told his where his loyalties lied 2+ years ago when he trashed Lin Wood.
Now he’s trashing Trump.
See a pattern?
His true character now fully exposed?
Seems to be a pattern of turning on those who helped him and biting the hand that feeds.
So sad.
Hey, Kyle’s entitled to his opinion (even if it’s as a mouthpiece for someone named Dudley Brown). But MAGA is equally entitled to not respect that opinion.
Bad take Kyle, very bad take.
