‘This is profoundly ridiculous’: Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene wants to award Kyle Rittenhouse the Congressional Gold Medal

We think the best thing for Kyle Rittenhouse right now is to lay low and maybe get some lawyers working on defamation lawsuits against, say, people like President Joe Biden who alleged he was a white supremacist, or Rep. Ayanna Pressley who called him a white supremacist domestic terrorist. And of course CNN.According to Fox News, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has introduced a bill to award Rittenhouse the Congressional Gold Medal. “The bill didn’t have any co-sponsors yet as of Friday,” Fox News reports.This is profoundly ridiculous. https://t.co/eHfKLg4WbM— Joe Concha (@JoeConchaTV) November 27, 2021Others who recently received the Congressional Gold Medal include the 13 U.S. service members killed in a terrorist attack in Afghanistan.C’mon 🤦🏻‍♀️— Maddy55 (@MarilynGreco) November 27, 2021My brain just exploded.— Mike Murphy (@MikeMur25778928) November 27, 2021Absolutely not.— Sevs (@jasdcs) November 27, 2021Yes, it is. It’s also an abuse of her position. Huge cringe factor, and I am a life long conservative.— Phatpianogirl (@phatpiano) November 27, 2021She’s trolling.— Meow And Yawn (@meowandyawn) November 27, 2021This is so wrong.— R L Young (@Luvspringers) November 27, 2021Indeed. A bit too over the top…— Snow65snow (@Snow65Snow) November 27, 2021He’s not guilty & I’m happy, but this is not good.— Jan Couch (@Jabbo2021) November 27, 2021I like her but that IS ridiculous— Scott (@Scott27758158) November 27, 2021Lawmakers and media need to leave Kyle alone. You are using him and that is never helpful.— Prairieponderings (@SuburbGarden) November 27, 2021She should just leave him alone so he can stay out of the press and get back to something of a life.— Fang-Fang: God-given Inalienable Rights (@PraireLady) November 27, 2021Embarassing. It’s like her whole schtick is just to be the Republican version of the cringe that is AOC.— Comrade Questions (@ComradeQuestio7) November 27, 2021I don’t think #Rittenhouse would want this. Stop trying to make him a hero. He used self defense and that’s it.— James Hartman (@therealbabajim) November 27, 2021She’s just trolling the left.I find the responses extraordinarily entertaining.— Richard Thompson (@RickyT1926) November 27, 2021Trial is over. Move on and better yet, let him move on.— Joey Bananas (@BZurunkel) November 27, 2021Everybody should just leave the kid alone. It was self defense. It was always self defense. It’s over. Let him have his life back. Stop using him for political benefit either side. Yes, the left and media did him extremely extremely dirty, but going overboard the opposite way??— John Matthewson (@JohnMatthews85) November 27, 2021It’s something a Democrat would do.— DOUG (@DougSpringfield) November 27, 2021A lot of people are noting that they’ve built statues of George Floyd, but again, that’s something Democrats would do.Related:Rob Reiner melts down over Kyle Rittenhouse’s visit to Mar-a-Lago https://t.co/QblJdjgKNq— Twitchy Team (@TwitchyTeam) November 24, 2021 Recommended Twitchy Video
