Kyle Rittenhouse has shared a meme which uses the moment he started crying during his murder trial to poke fun at rising gas prices.
Rittenhouse, who was cleared of two counts of murder following the highly divisive trial in November 2021, shared the clip on his Twitter account on Thursday, where it has since been reshared more than 4,300 times.
The edited video shows Rittenhouse filling up a car at a gas station while in tears.
The clip superimposes Rittenhouse’s body from when he was hyperventilating while describing to the jury the circumstances that led up to him shooting Joseph Rosenbaum during the Black Lives Matter protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin, in August 2020.
“No, it’s not Lemon Heads.. it’s the burning hole in my pocket thanks to a Joe Biden presidency,” Rittenhouse tweeted while sharing the clip.
Rittenhouse then credits the creation of the “funny video” to Twitter user @derfanzor.
The “Lemon Heads” remark is a reference to criticism he received from NBA star LeBron James during the trial as the basketball legend appeared to suggest the 19-year-old was not remorseful for his actions.
