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.”

“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.
