Default Kathy Griffin

Has anybody been following this story and seen her picture with Donald's head and no the backlash that she is receiving because of her morbid sense of humour

If you do not think there has been any backlash, you have not been paying attention. She has been deservedly raked, enough that she made a heartfelt apology.

There is a line continually crossed when it comes to Trump and what people get away with saying, much of it brought on by him. But that pic was way over the line in my opinion. Just a has been comic trying to get some more fame.

I wouldn't say she got away with it. She is being raked over good and was fired over it... Good for the goose and all that...

Big whoop. Unless she is calling on someone to kill him, it's called free speech. At least that's what the guy said who had Obama's head on a spear in a halloween display. No legal action, no outrage. Look at it and shrug.

Everyone's on the outrage train...

I truly cannot stand Donald Trump, but what a shortsighted decision. It went a little too far, in my opinion. Contradicts a lot of the "non-violent" mantra of the left.

the only reason she did it was because my first thought was "whoa, she's still around..."

so why don't we let her crawl back into the darkness and stop talking about her?

What a great source for comedic talent?

Puts the definition of common in the forefront.

The chemtrails have been successful in at least one case of inducing brain rot.

I always thought the character she played in an old Seinfeld episode was one of the most annoying character to ever appear in that show. Apparently true to life??

But let me be clear. I think the picture's stupid and pointless. But her right to be stupid and pointless.

Seemed like a good idea at the time I guess. But the number of death threats against Trump - be it serious or venting is mind blowing. Something like 12000 on twitter alone by February. I'm sure it's far surpassed that in the last few months.

If I were the Trump family I would sue her for all she is worth, and I suspect that there is a law suit coming down the pipe.

What a pig!

I'm guessing she isn't worth all that much.

Did a quick Google search, this is what is says:

Kathy Griffin net worth: Kathy Griffin is an American actress and comedian who has a net worth of $20 million dollars. Kathy Griffin first starting breaking through thanks to roles on the sitcoms "Seinfeld" and "Suddenly Susan".

Hope she has better lawyers than Trump, somehow I doubt it.

It's apparently ​serious enough for the Secret Service to investigate, her to get canned by CNN, have an upcoming engagement cancelled and lose a national endosement deal.

She is in a world of S.

Being an American Liberal I am thinking that she is just to stupid to realize it yet, but I am sure she will figure it out eventually, like maybe after when the lawsuit arrives and her lawyer explains in to her.

By the way don't liberal women have breasts in the USA

What should she be sued for, hurting The Donald's feelings? Honestly, some of you guys are starting to sound like snowflakes 😀

Just thinking to myself that the very last thing I would want to do is to go to court against the man that is putting all the new Judges on the bench, good luck with that little breast-less one! hahahaha.
