KATHY GRIFFIN GETS THE AX From Last Theater in Comedy Tour

Kathy Griffin's offensive against Donald Trump Friday apparently fell on deaf ears ... because the only remaining venue that would allow her to perform has just pulled the plug.
We've learned Kathy's concert at the Uptown Theatre in Napa scheduled for June 17 has been canceled. This follows 6 other cancelations, including bergenPAC in New Jersey which canceled hours before Kathy's news conference.
The Uptown Theatre cancelation is especially significant because the decision was apparently made after she took the mic with her lawyer. The Uptown folks said on Wednesday the show would go on, but they clearly had a change of heart.

I was talking today with someone who has not been much of a Trump supporter but considered this whole thing totally unacceptable, and said that all the liberals she knew were disgusted by this.
She said that she even feels sorry for Trump, something she thought she would never do.
The thing that really turned her off though, is that a video clip emerged of Griffin and her agent (I think) discussing the possibility of blow back from what they were planning and she said flippantly, *Well, if people complain, we’ll just apologize*.
That just destroyed any consideration that she might have been sincere about the apology.

The press conference was a bad idea. It made her look even worse.

She keeps digging.

The Hollyweird types think that everyone in America thinks like they do in their little bubble they think USA is like some tiny European style country with LA one side and NY on the other with trailer park in between...
How wrong they are.

She will be lucky if President Trump doesnt find some slow acting creative retaliation.After going-on-50 years around Grandma, I'd say that the male in the Trump establishment is the absolute damn LEAST of Griffin's concerns.
Go after some political adversary and it's all good. All part of the game.
Go after some otherwise kind and gracious lady's child, particularly a grade school age and ONLY child and nobody of sound mind really wants to be in the same quadrant of the star system when Mommy starts the blowback.
Melina's a lovely, beautiful, wonderful person and I think those traits just shine out of her....but her child is at risk and I wouldn't get between her and the source of that threat and I'm certain that DJT has exactly the same attitude about the deal.
I'll just wish Kathy Griffin lots of luck with her CF and refer all further questions to Kipling:

You can’t fool me. That’s not Kathy Griffin. It’s Dennis Leary.

Yet another mistake in an entire parade of miscalculations - she probably believed that would impress the public at large and bring them on over to her side. It didn't.

She’s been a vile and vulgar woman all her career. Why should anyone be surprised? Hopefully she’ll have go out and get a real job now.

Good.
Is she in prison yet for promoting ISIS-style threats against the President of the United States?
