She seemed to like Trump when there was publicity in it.

Comedian Kathy Griffin has apologized for a photo of herself holding what appears to be a bloody, decapitated fake head of President Trump, despite sweeping bi-partisan disapproval of the image.
The photo, taken by celebrity photographer Tyler Shields, was posted by Griffin and Shields Tuesday to their social media accounts.
"I caption this 'there was blood coming out of his eyes, blood coming out of his ... wherever,'" Griffin tweeted, referring to an exchange between Donald Trump and former Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly during the primary season.
But in an attempt to appease those who were offended by the image, the controversial comedienne then tweeted, "OBVIOUSLY, I do not condone ANY violence by my fans or others to anyone, ever! I'm merely mocking the Mocker in Chief."

But the image caught the attention of the U.S. Secret Service. Although the federal law enforcement agency does not directly cite the image in any of its tweets, in response to Twitter users tweeting the image at its account, the Secret Service tweeted Tuesday afternoon, "On it! @SecretService has a robust protective intelligence division that monitors open source reporting & social media to evaluate threats."
And an hour later, the agency tweeted, "Threats made against @SecretService protectees receive the highest priority of all of our investigations. #ProtectionNeverRests."

I appreciate that.
But believe me, I wish I never had to write anything like that.
Anyone not outraged by it is not paying attention to the sick cycle carousel we’re riding right now.
I do believe you! The things we witness and talk about from day-to-day now are horrific and shocking.
I agree with your take on it. Wouldn’t change a thing, because that’s how folks should feel about it.
I’ve come to the place where nothing the Left does shocks me. It’s just more of the same, this time more disgusting than the last, but we know the next thing will be even more disgusting.
Hey, and the photographer is downright proud of himself. Can’t see anything wrong with what he and Kathy and others did there.
Who cares if an eleven year old kid sees a facsimile of his dad’s head like that, made to look as disgustingly real as it possibly could.
We’re talking about animals here, no higher level of functioning mental abilities whatsoever.
If it pops into your head, do it. There is nothing evil. “Hey, we’re the Left! We’re perfect! And who is going to take us to task. They media is on our side. Some of them will refuse to even talk about it.”
This is who the Left is. Who in their right mind could remain a Democrat knowing what they have become.
I can’t see a single person on our side who is so revolting, I consider leaving the party.
McCain reaches that level, bur he’s not one of us. He’s their excess baggage.
Agreed.
“:^)
“...Who in their right mind could remain a Democrat knowing what they have become....”
Operative phrase right there... “Who in their RIGHT MIND”.
RE McCain:
He’s worse. He KNOWS what they are, and goes willingly.
She’s not half as sorry as she’s going to be.
Your post is awesome, succinct, and expresses just how I and millions of Deplorables feel as well. I believe there is more hatred in this country than during the Civil War and it’s being fostered by the MSM and the spineless, gutless, treasonous Liberals and financed by the likes of Soros.
I urge everyone to read NFHale’s post and then add your own comments!
Bravo! Well stated, and deadly accurate.
Well said Hale!
And again, that thing >>>DID NOT<<< apologize to the POTUS. It “whatevered” to it’s fans and looked like it ate a s**t sandwich as it was >>>FORCED<<< to say something, ostencibly to try to save it’s career and for no other reason.
She looks like her mother took Thalidomide and birthed a nine pound nose!
It was the most insincere half-hearted crap of an apology I’ve heard.
More like “Sorry YOU got offended...”
Typical liberal attempt at being passive aggressive. Nothing new.
I smell a stint in rehab, STAT, for the Griffin thing.
Oh my. I never thought about being placed on the no fly list. That will shut things down for her tomorrow.
