Kathy Griffin reposts controversial Trump head photo
Griffin first tweeted the graphic photo in 2017
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}A newly emboldened Kathy Griffin reposted her controversial photo of the comedian holding a bloodied, decapitated replica of President Trump’s head on Election Night.
Griffin lost several jobs, including hosting New Year’s Eve on CNN, after she first posted the photo soon after Trump took office in 2017.
Over the last few years, however, the comedian has launched a stand-up comeback and the controversy was chronicled in the documentary “Kathy Griffin: A Hell of a Story.”
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Griffin’s tweet came after Trump declared he had won several states where a winner has yet to be declared.

Griffin initially apologized, saying she “crossed the line” but a year later, she said she regretted the apology because she believed it was a Trump effort to try to make her look bad.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}After reposting the photo, Griffin posted another tweet saying, "It’s not just that trump corrupted the election exactly the way he said he would, post office etc, it’s that 66 million + of my fellow Americans happily voted FOR Racism Sexism Qanon insanity Pandemic denial Kids in cages Voter suppression Church over State Climate disaster."
