Comedian Kathy Griffin tearfully apologized in a Friday press conference for posing with a fake bloodied and severed head depicting U.S. President Donald Trump, saying that she felt her career was now over and that Trump "broke" her.
Griffin has lost sponsorships and jobs, including her role as co-host of CNN's New Year's Eve coverage with journalist Anderson Cooper, since a photograph and video from the shoot appeared on social media on Tuesday.
President Trump said the image of Griffin with the gory mask resembling him was "sick" and that it had traumatized his family, especially his youngest son, 11-year-old Barron. Trump's oldest son, Donald Jr., called for employers to drop the comedian.
I dont think I will have a career after this. Im going to be honest, (Trump) broke me, said Griffin, 56, a two-time Emmy-winning performer known for her deliberately provocative brand of humor. She added that she had received death threats.

“She blamed Trump, she blamed ageism, she blamed sexism, she blamed white guys, she blamed death threats..”
Sounds like she took a page from Hillary!’s post-election playbook.
Most Americans have a different definition of a career.
Bashing Republicans and threatening our Potus is not a career nor funny!
Also, aiming your sick humor at a child is not a career nor acceptable.
When a number of people, who think that it is right to do the wrong thing doesn’t change the fact it is the wrong thing.
Thanks to Jim 0216 for the above.
Targeting Trump Kathy Griffin in 2016: my edge is that Ill go direct for Barron.

Against the backdrop of Kathy Griffin producing a video where she decapitated President Donald Trump; and yesterday hiring attorney Lisa Bloom to conduct a press conference scheduled for today, it is worth noting an interview Ms. Griffin gave to Vulture Media at the Equality Now Gala in December of 2016:
[ ] So Im 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 Ill go direct for Barron. Im going to get in ahead of the game.
oh great- another hillary clinton whining about how her failed career is everyone else’s fault
What a gig- suck at life- lose big time, then blame others-

Kathy Griffin
I wouldn’t be surprised if ISIS and/or Al Qaeda have sent job offers, for their propaganda division. Of course, she’ll have to wear a burqa if she accepts.
Honestly, she wouldn’t need that much dough in the slammer anyway.
Oh, Boo-FUKKING-Hoo. You always claimed to be a D-list celebrity. Now you are a Delisted celebrity.
Crawl back under your rock. Your 15 minutes of fame was over 3 days ago.
Paula Deen got worse for calling some guy the N word..look at Michael Richards what happened to him..but this idiot cuts off the head of the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, goes on TV, cries like a blithering idiots and blames President Trump and his family for it LOL..that’s like the Menendez brothers crying about being orphans..you did it to YOURSELF..you want to be funny, cut off the head of Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton and see what happens..come on Kathy, in the name of “Art” do it
The only thing she has left is to do “Hate-a-thons” in front of like minded nasty vulgar profane sycophants.
Compton is too good for her.
The second someone associates themselves with the cockroach Allred family its pretty much over
If there were universal social justice, if life was fair, no one would have heard of Kathy Griffin. She is a no-talent, and has a repulsive personality.
I’m puzzled.
She’s says that her career is over like it’s a bad thing.....
Somehow, in some way, the Russians must be involved.
Hadn’t laughed this hard till I heard her press conference; the more she cried, the funnier it got.
I looked up the dictionary definition for chutzpah and found ol’ Kathy’s picture.
See, it’s an easy principle to understand, Kath. Don’t pick fights with people who will whip your tail.
Griffin standing next to her attorney, Lisa Bloom, who we all know not only as Gloria Allred's spotlight-sucking daughter but remember her from last year when Bloom tried to hold a press conference with a woman who was going to accuse Trump of violently raping her when she was 13 years old back in 1994.
The woman, a drug addict, didn't show up to the press conference and later recanted everything.
This article says that says she is 56 years old. She looks way older than that. She looks older than my 85 year old mother and my 95 year old mother-in-law. Maybe she has dementia. She could possibly use that as a reason for her behavior.
Kramer: Some Sally woman called said "Thanks a lot , she's quitting the business, you ruined her life.
Jerry: What! You're the one who ruined her life.
Kramer: Well that's not how she remembers it.
Jerry: Well , I got to talk her out of this.
Kramer: I thought you said she stinks
Jerry: She does stink and she should quit. But I don't want it to be because of me. It should be the traditional route; years of rejections and failures till she's spit out the bottom of the porn industry.
