Rittenhouse trial is why Americans don't trust mainstream media: Lara Trump

She noted that these media outlets will "pay the price" as Americans' trust in media drops to an all-time low.

LARA TRUMP: This is nothing new for the mainstream media. In fact, they've been trying to tell us what they want us to hear and not the truth for quite some time now.

A lot of these people consider themselves to be political activists, and they disguise themselves as journalists. But I think it's why you see the distrust in the media at an all-time high in our country right now because you haven't been able to get the facts about a lot of things. They've been pushing a certain narrative for so long.
