Comedian Kathy Griffin held a press conference Friday with her attorney regarding the backlash surrounding the image of her holding up a faux severed head of President Donald Trump.
During her opening statement, Griffin said the reaction from the White House is something that has never been seen before.
"A sitting president of the United States and his grown children and the first lady are personally—I feel—personally trying to ruin my life forever. Forever," the comic said. "You guys know him, he's never going to stop."
Since images and video of her controversial photo shoot were posted earlier this week, Griffin has been fired from CNN's New Year's Eve coverage team, and Sen. Al Franken (D., Minn.) has canceled an upcoming appearance with Griffin.
She’s a victim, ya know. Uh huh.
Replying to @DBloom451 @kathygriffin
CNN fired Griffin because they are afraid of retribution from Trump? Now THAT is funny!
The First Family didn’t hold your bloody decapitated head up with a cold evil stare in their eyes.
He broke her?
I remember watching Westerns where the Cowboys “broke” Horses so they could ride them.
I that what she means?
Pure, unadulterated schadenfreude.
The cherry on top would be prosecution by DOJ.
Maybe they were afraid Trump’s supporters might begin chanting “CNN sucks!” or something, huh?
/s
SS reached out to a ‘comedian’ ???
Huhhh...? Does that mean that the same laws don’t apply to comedians as they do to everyone else?
How is she a victim??
She started this whole thing. But now we are supposed to say she’s a victim, because of the backlash which she provoked in the first place???
I will never understand the mental state of some liberals.
I think she is using this as a legal strategy to avoid a conviction and prison sentence.
This has got to be the most bizarre thing I’ve seen in a long time.
These people are absolutely crazy.
I hope Trump totally ignores this.
Let the subordinates and the rest of us take care of her.
The photo was disgusting. I couldn’t look at it.
Hey, honey, you haven’t seen ruined yet. Wait till Melania files a multi million dollar suit against you. She has unlimited budget....you do not...Karma is served. Have a nice life.
You ruined your own life, and I hope it is forever.
I know I will do my part to make sure it is, I will never patronize any venue that has you.
the reaction from the White House is something that has never been seen before
Oh, bad WH for being upset since decapitated heads of POTUS are the norm. That witch needs to be thrown in jail immediately.
I remember watching Westerns where the Cowboys “broke” Horses so they could ride them.
I that what she means?
Trump didn’t ruin her life, she did that all by herself.
What an intellectual, emotional, psychological train wreck it must be ... to be HER!
