Kyle Rittenhouse revealed during an interview with conservative host Glenn Beck on Wednesday that he wants to have a “conversation” with President Joe Biden for suggesting that he is a “white supremacist.”
The 18-year-old shared the comment during a lengthy interview on “The Blaze” that aired Wednesday night to answer questions regarding what happened in Kenosha and Rittenhouse’s life after being found not guilty in a case of self-defense that ended the lives of two men and injured a third in 2020.
“I would like to sit down with the president and have a conversation with him and tell him the facts of what happened,” Rittenhouse told Beck.
"The nightmares that keep me up … what could have happened if I did let them take my gun."

“There’s no other way to put it: the President of the United States refused to disavow white supremacists on the debate stage last night,” Biden tweeted during his 2020 presidential campaign.

Following the Kenosha verdict that declared Rittenhouse not guilty of all charges, Biden released another statement.
“While the verdict in Kenosha will leave many Americans feeling angry and concerned, myself included, we must acknowledge that the jury has spoken,” Biden posted.

“I remain steadfast in my commitment to do everything in my power to ensure that every American is treated equally, with fairness and dignity, under the law,” the president added in the statement.
Rittenhouse hopes the “everything in my power” includes sitting down to discuss his own situation with “fairness.”
In another recent interview, Rittenhouse talked with Fox News host Tucker Carlson regarding Biden. The Daily Wire reported:
“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,” Rittenhouse said.
“That’s not a small thing to be called that,” Fox News host Tucker Carlson said.
“No, it’s, it’s actual malice, defaming my character for him to say something like that,” Rittenhouse said. “It’s actually quite hysterical how nobody can go back and look at the facts of the case. ‘He crossed state lines,’ false. ‘He’s a white supremacist,’ false. None of that is true. And the lies that they can just get away with spreading is just sickening. And it’s a disgrace to this country.”
