I am appalled by what KG did. I don’t care what Trump did beforehand there is no excuse. I also don’t see this as comedy, huh yeah, because she is a comedian she and the people who want to support her can claim it was a bad comedic choice, but I say bullshit. It’s borderline illegal. It’s actually threat to the president. The only reason people aren’t worried about it is because no one believes KG would actually harm the president. What if it was some tough looking Mexican guy doing what she did? Or, a Muslim guy?
I hear people say what about when people were showing likenesses of Obama swinging in the wind, here was the outcry. There was a fucking outcry. Plenty of people were appalled by that. Plenty of people were frightened by it. Some skinhead shit has a noose around a doll that looks like our black president? That’s probably scary to every black person for themselves, let alone being worried for our president.
It’s wrong no matter what. She should have been arrested! What if someone draws a swastika on my door, or burns a cross on the black guys lawn down the street? Fuck that, I call the cops. I’m being terrorized.
Sorry, what she did was awful. Has Trump done some awful things? A big fat yes. What is this tit for tat? He kicked me so I bit him. Are we in kindergarten? Remember when Cruz went after Melanie, so Trump said something about Cruz’s wife, and when Trump said, “he did it first” the liberals went crazy calling Trump childish? Well, you can’t have it both ways. KG doesn’t get to say he did it first, and neither does anyone else who criticized Trump about that Cruz incident.
I think Trump can be a bully, but in this case, tweeting how horrible KG was to do such a thing. He’s right. I’m not commenting whether I want the president tweeting, and in general I think he needs to stifle more often, but KG was dead wrong in my book.
It’s never ok to threaten someone. If someone held up a “head” of my husband covered in blood I would be a nervous reck. Shit. Think about it.
