Why the heck would he run for Congress. The state, the national news media and even old Joe Biden, just made Rittenhouse a very rich man!!

"As the nation awaits the verdict in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) is already envisioning a future where Rittenhouse gets off. And then comes to Capitol Hill to work for him.
That's right. Gaetz wants Rittenhouse to come be his intern.
On Newsmax last night, Gaetz said that Rittenhouse deserves a "not guilty" verdict, and that he would make a "pretty good" congressionial intern.
Gaetz said his office may reach out to him, if he was acquitted.
Gaetz is no stranger to stunts like these. And if he is acquitted, given the notoriety of the trial, it seems like Rittenhouse's best career path forward would be joining some sort of conservative political movement. So this probably will happen. He may end up running for Congress in a few years, when he's eligible."
