There's a bunch of old white guys trying to silence me!' Kathy Griffin breaks down in

I believe this to be true. The only reason there is condemnation is that they've created such a ****fit over every little thing done by the right that they are obliged to condemn her. To themselves, or behind closed doors, a lot of them probably liked and enjoyed the picture.

A membet of this forum posted a picture of a beheaded President Trump just the other day and the Libersls didn't say ****.

I won't disagree that she probably got caught up in the moment....but you also reap what you sow...she went overboard! I think the ideology is that Trump can say/do anything and get a free pass so why can't I......I'm sure she didn't expect the backlash she has gotten...especially the backlash from those on the left. She went overboard and will now pay the price of carrying an act too far....and.... if she is getting death threats as she claims that is also wrong and people should be outraged by that too.

She is getting death threats... from the Left.

This last 6-months has been a display of intolerance and violence by the Left.

Those of us on the right... didn't like the image, but I realized this was something perfectly reflective of that movement... sickeningly overboard. She branded the Left perfectly. For that... I thank her.

In the words of the old Carpenter's tune... "We've only just begun..."...

Of course she has a reputation to ruin. Don't act like she's a regular Jo.

My guess is she's screaming inside... if I'd only been more patient and found a more timely opportunity to release the pic.

She regrets picking the wrong moment. Anyone who claims they'll go after the 11-year old child of the president, isn't one who cares about anyone... but herself.

She's ****ed herself. I think she would have had the chance for a comeback in Tinseltown, but after this idiotic presser... she basically decapitated herself.

Greetings, Jack. :2wave:

Apparently her apology was just a means to get rid of the heat she herself created, and had she left it at that, it probably would have been accepted. Instead, by whining about it now, it looks like she is just going for more publicity, which she may be hoping gets her job back or something, but it also looks like the apology wasn't sincere. Stupid moves from the beginning, and now adding that comment about "stupid white guys are out to silence me" was another error, since she was implying that only the Repubs found it wrong, when even the Dems were faulting what she did.... :sinking:

Self-immolation. She's headed straight down hill.

I especially like the part where you tried to compare the media/hollywood criticism of Trump to Obama.

Like all those pictures of Obama's severed head, weren't those nice?

If Trump did loose his head, he would gain 10 points in IQ.

Although I admit he doesn't speak very eloquently (at least in speeches and when interviewed) his IQ is actually proven to be very high.

There is no bigger snowflake than Trump and his trumpettes who constantly cry about how mean he is being treated....LOL....time to find that safeplace and turn on the right-wing radio so that we can hear what we wanna hear.

Is she's sincere re: her apology, she'll shut up and move on. Or make a personal apology to the President.

I'm not sure she's sorry she did it. I think she's sorry she was so wrong about how she thought it would be received.

(I haven't read all the replies. If this is a repeat of an earlier post...sorry.)

What are you referring to? That was a drive-by posting if I've ever seen one.

Remind me. Did Trump ever personally apologize to any of the women who he grabbed by their ******s because he could?

A reporter asked Griffin about comments she made during an interview in December 2016.

“I’m happy to deliver beat down to Donald Trump — and also to Barron. You know a lot of comics are going to go hard for Donald, my edge is that I’ll go direct for Barron. I’m going to get in ahead of the game,” Griffin said in the December 2016 interview.

Griffin’s attorney Lisa Bloom attempted to brush away Griffin’s previous comments, saying that Griffin had made them years ago, when in fact they were made just six months ago.

I'm referring to you. Griffin's action was fully out of bounds.

Your post is about a privately held, if crude conversation being leaked vs. a comedian publically doing something as overboard as she did.

Big diff.

Well, what Griffith did is certainly vulgar and tasteless, but history would indicate that it's quite easy to trigger Trump. How many times has Alec Baldwin done it so far?

Seriously? I'm sorry....but if you believe that comments are ok simply because they are made in private vs public....then I can't help you. So Trump shouldn't apologize to women who he grabbed their ******s because he joked about it in private? Doh!

Nope....just saying your selective outrage should be less selective...that's all.

A. I'm not outraged.

B. Carry on.

Did he actually? Last i checked no one came forward with any credible proof, just the bragging of a man trying to sound big. It was lewd nd crude but it was locker room talk. I know you were told this was a solid talking point to turn women against Trump, and as a good puppet you do as you're told however I wanted to highlight the difference here, a comedian loudly proclaiming she's going after a kid vs some recorded conversation.

You are free of course to keep blathering the message you were taught, it's what you do.
