Griffin’s Warnings and Criticisms
Kathy Griffin, the controversial comedian known for her obsession with President Donald Trump, has reemerged with a flurry of comments about the recent election results and their potential consequences. In a video posted on social media, Griffin painted a grim picture of what she believes a second Trump term would entail for America.
“I don’t think our beloved country, America, knows what it’s in for with a fascistic society and dictator. I’m not being hyperbolic. I’m not being dramatic,” Griffin said.
Ugh.
The comedian’s dire predictions extended to specific groups she believes would be at risk under a Trump administration. Griffin warned about the potential dangers facing the LGBT community and women in particular.
“Gays, you may not be safe. So to be gay in America, much less trans because they’re obsessed with trans people, to be LGBT in America is no longer gonna be a safe thing anymore. To be a woman in America is gonna be even less safe than it already is,” Griffin cautioned.
What is this woman smoking? Trump literally hosted a gay marriage at Mar-a-Lago last week.
Griffin’s Personal Struggles
The comedian also touched on her personal challenges, linking her diagnosis of “complex PTSD” to the intense backlash she faced following her controversial 2017 stunt involving a replica of Trump’s severed head. This incident significantly impacted Griffin’s career and public image, leading to widespread criticism and professional consequences.
Griffin’s recent comments reflect her ongoing struggle to navigate the complex landscape of political comedy in the aftermath of the Trump presidency. Her remarks highlight the challenges faced by comedians attempting to blend humor with political commentary in an era of heightened sensitivities and deep societal divisions.
Here’s the thing: had she not posed with a bloodied model head of President Trump, she wouldn’t have faced the insane criticism she did. And, it’s fairly obvious she can’t take what she gives. There’s a lesson there.
The next four years will be great in one sense – we get Trump back – but unfortunately we’re also going to hear a lot more from Kathy Griffin it seems.
