Kent State “gun girl” Kaitlin Bennett — too extreme even for the Trump campaign? – By Zachary Petrizzo (Salon) / July 7 2021

Gun-toting young Trump enthusiast outraged — for some reason, ex-president’s staff has barred her from rallies

Infamous right-wing activist and gun enthusiast Kaitlin Bennett, best known for her role in a Turning Point USA “diaper protest” that backfired in public humiliation, as well as for attempting to trigger liberals on college campuses, has an unusual problem on her hands: Donald Trump’s official campaign-style operation wants nothing to do with her media website or her “reporting.”

Bennett, who regularly attends TrumpWorld conferences such as the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) and previous Donald Trump rallies, was denied press credentials to Trump’s Sarasota, Florida, gathering last Saturday evening.

After being denied a press pass, Bennett took to social media to express her frustration over the situation. “We applied for media credentials for the upcoming Trump rally and were promptly denied. Why do the people around Trump keep trying to alienate their biggest supporters that have risked injury, doxxing, censorship, and harassment to promote his campaign?” she asked on the far-right social media site Gab, posting from her “Liberty Hangout” account.

A website notice from the Trump camp showing that both Bennett and her video producer had been denied press credentials was attached to the Gab message. Bennett has become a low-level MAGA Twitter celebrity by producing “person on the street”-style videos that are occasionally picked up by more prominent right-wing outlets, with the evident goal of generating outrage on the right over what liberals supposedly believe.
