Comedian Kathy Griffin says that she has been welcomed abroad, but wishes she could go on a tour in the U.S. "without getting shot."

“They were thrilled to have someone come over and make fun of Trump,” said Griffin, who recently finished up a 15-country world tour, during an interview with Politico published Wednesday.

“I wish I could tour in the U.S. without getting shot — I know I can’t. I was in the middle of a 50-city tour when the tweet happened. It was canceled in 24 hours.”

Griffin faced widespread backlash earlier this year after she posted a controversial photo posing with a fake decapitated head resembling President Trump.

Kathy Griffiths, you are irrelevant. Nobody would waste a bullet on you. We are all happy to just ignore you.

She’s not worth even discussing, the worst thing for he is a total lack of attention by others.

She just wishes she could tour, period.

Don’t you wish she’d stay overseas?

I was watching x-files the other night and an episode had her in it.
She is a horrible actress. How does she keep getting work?

You’d think that she’d be worried more about being beheaded since that is apparently her thing.

Kathy, kathy, Go to Church, get Right with God! If your Jewish, go back to Temple. Then do some charitable work—and get some writers to do something funny—really funny. Ask Trump for forgiveness for the stupid head thing. Or Make it funny. Like do it again, only make the head talk—it could say in a Trump voice “Is that all you got?” “We will make America Great again!” Then run screaming from the set while the head chases you—Laughing. That would be funny.
