Tucker Carlson: Kathy Griffin Is the ‘Perfect Embodiment of What the Modern Left Believes’
Breitbart Video ^ | 6/3/17 | Jeff Poor

During the opening monologue of “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” host Tucker Carlson offered his thoughts on last week’s controversy involving Kathy Griffin holding up a severed bloodied mannequin head of President Donald Trump.

After apologizing, Griffin later held a news conference and declared herself to be the victim, to which Carlson said was a signal of her embodiement of the left.

Transcript as follows:

Earlier this week, as you just saw, Kathy Griffin released a video of herself posing with a bloody mannequin head made up to look like President Trump, comedy that failed completely, nobody thought it was funny. As performance art, it was lame, least creative stunt of the week by far. As a political statement it didn’t even make any sense but it did have the effect of briefly making Griffin famous again and of course, that was likely the whole point. Today, Griffin elbowed her way back into the news cycle holding a press conference with celebrity misery chaser Lisa Bloom, here’s part of what she said.

I wish someone would address the fact that these dem creatures never feel ashamed or feel a sense of guilt over their vitriol and hate.

griffin is an angry twat. She has no principles. I hope this is the end of her career.

I believe most of the left think what Kathy did was just funny and great. However if a Conservative held up Obama with a noose around his neck you would never hear the end of it. They are such hypocrites.

I literally have no idea who this woman is. I had never heard of her before last week and I hope to never hear of her again.

This “person” who apparently cant understand normal thinking is the perfect poster child for the insane demented left. Let her rant let her rave for each time she does she turns a few ... albeit a small few ... from the dark side

Maybe they really are mentally ill... they lack conscience.... and empathy.

We must make Griffin and the masked, black uniformed rioters synonymous with the democrat party, because they are the true face of the party. Circulate Griffin’s picture to everyone on your email list, and urge them to do the same thing. We can’t let the media bury this and pretend it never happened.

The left , but all liberals are today full of hate, in tolerance, and use NAZI brown shirt tactics to close down free speech
They think because they have the diversity stickler, and love stickers on their cars that they are for that when clearly they are not, bit like idiots we see driving an SUV and a sticker saying go green vote blue.
Yes they are really that stupid, and I saw a woman yesterday with that sticker driving a big ass, ole SUV.

She is wannabe comic who never quite made it up to the"D"-list.

In the late 90s she got lucky and landed a bit part on the old Seinfeld sitcom. The character she played was a no personality venal person trying to do stand up in back alley taverns.

In the show she invented a schtick of just making fun off Jerry Seinfeld. It really didn't make sense and she only appeared two or three times.

Following that brief flirtation with notoriety she went absolutely no where trying to become a female Don Rickles, an act that didn't sell, probably because of her nasty personality.

After the election of George Bush, she tried to switch her schtick to just making fun of him like she had done on the Seinfeld show, a style that morphed into slandering any and all conservatives and American values.

Liberals liked the stuff enough for her to make a living and somehow she got hired by CNN to do the New Year's Ball Drop gig with Cooper Anderson.

She will probably make more money milking this beheading gig than anything she has done so far.

I agree with what you’re saying. Let’s hope the RNC is cataloging all these Leftist eruptions under the “2018 Mid-Term Elections” file. It would be nice to bring them out just to remind the American voter who the Dems really are.
