Comedienne Kathy Griffin ‘Begs for Your Forgiveness’ After Jokingly Beheading Trump
Comedienne Kathy Griffin begged for forgiveness after jokingly holding up a bloody head that appeared to belong to President Donald Trump.
“I’m a comic,” Griffin says. “I cross the line. I move the line, then I cross it. I went way too far. The image is too disturbing. I understand how it offends people. It wasn’t funny. I get it. I beg for your forgiveness. I went too far. I made a mistake, and I was wrong.”
The president himself was horrified at the photo.
“Kathy Griffin should be ashamed of herself. My children, especially my 11 year old son, Barron, are having a hard time with this. Sick!” he tweeted.
TMZ released (Editor’s note: graphic photo) the photo after receiving a sneak peek from a video shoot. The article then launched (Editor’s Note: graphic photo repeated) a Secret Service investigation.
Even Trump’s critics were appalled by Griffin’s move.
“For the record, I am appalled by the photo shoot Kathy Griffin took part in. It is clearly disgusting and completely inappropriate,” Anderson Cooper tweeted.
Chelsea Clinton tweeted: “This is vile and wrong. It is never funny to joke about killing a president.” {eoa}
