Washington DC - Guns rights advocate Kyle Rittenhouse has been getting backlash on social media after he revealed he won't be voting for Donald Trump this election.

On Friday, Rittenhouse shared a video on social media, explaining that Trump will not get his support because of his poor record with gun rights.

"Unfortunately, Donald Trump had bad advisers, making him bad on the Second Amendment, and that is my issue," Rittenhouse argued. "If you cannot be completely uncompromisable on the Second Amendment, I will not vote for you, and I will write somebody else in."

"We need champions for the Second Amendment, or our rights would be eaten away and eroded each day," he added. "I support my decision, and I have no takebacks."

In another post, he shared an image of himself with former congressman and Libertarian Ron Paul, whom he plans to cast his vote for in November.

Back in August 2020, Rittenhouse, who was 17 at the time, traveled from his home in Illinois to attend a racial justice protest in Kenosha, Wisconsin, where he fatally shot two people and wounded one other.

A year later, he was acquitted on all charges after arguing self-defense and has since become a hero for the far-right and gun rights advocates.

His decision not to support Trump has been met with vitriol from MAGA supporters on social media, with many users labeling him "disloyal" and a "sellout."

One user even argued that Trump and MAGA made Rittenhouse the public figure he is today.

"If not for MAGA, you would be rotting in a prison bending over for Bubba," the user wrote. "MAGA raised unbelievable sums of money for you. Trump welcomed you into his home. This is how you thank him and the MAGA movement after all those years of support?"

After Rittenhouse was acquitted, Trump, who met with him at the White House a week later, defended the teen, calling his entire trial "prosecutorial misconduct."
