Kyle Rittenhouse visits Mar-a-Lago and talks with Donald Trump.   What did they talk about?

Miami, December 1 (RHC)-- In the U.S., local news outlets report that Kyle Rittenhouse -- the white teenager who was charged with killing two people last year in Wisconsin -- was in Florida the weekend after his acquittal and met with former President Donald Trump.

Speaking with Fox News host Sean Hannity in an interview, Trump confirmed that he met with the 18-year-old and his mother at his Mar-a-Lago resort.  Trump said Rittenhouse had called him wanting "to know if he could come over, say hello because he was a fan."  Trump spokesperson Liz Harrington tweeted a photo on November 24th of Rittenhouse and Trump side by side.

Earlier, it was reported that Rittenhouse went to Mar-a-Lago for a "two-week, all-expenses-paid vacation" Immediately after his acquittal.  Some on-line media claim Rittenhouse enjoyed a sunny vacation away from the courtroom where he spent three weeks.

Mark Richards, Rittenhouse's lead defense attorney, told reporters the claim that Donald Trump paid for his vacation is wrong.  Richards, however, didn't say when Rittenhouse arrived at Mar-a-Lago or how long he stayed with the former president.
