Rittenhouse lawyer slams internship offers from GOP congressmen

To Richards, the offers are all examples of people attempting to “trade on his celebrity.”

“They’re raising money on it and you have all these Republican congressmen saying come work for me,” Richards said. “They want to trade on his celebrity and I think it’s disgusting.”

Richards also slammed Donald Trump Jr. for encouraging people to support Gun Owners of America, a gun rights organization that said it would “award” an AR-15 to Rittenhouse.

“He’s an idiot,” Richards said. “I don’t have to expand on that because it speaks for itself.”
