WNU Editor: I give her credit for one thing .... she wanted to be provocative .... and she certainly was. But it is obvious that she had not calculated what the backlash would be .... nor even considered the opinions and feelings of other who have suffered from such atrocities .... i.e. Daniel Pearl. The world has changed in the past few years .... we are becoming more of a global village .... and the internet is our medium. Post something on one side of the world .... it is on the other-side within hours (or sooner). What may be funny to you .... can send a completely different message somewhere else .... which is why I decided to post this story. I come from a time when political correctness was not as important as it is today .... and I will admit that I am enjoyed living in that time. But the times have changed .... and because of that .... I know only too well that we have to be thoughtful on what we say and do on the worldwide web .... this includes bloggers and comics .... especially bad comics. But blaming President Trump for her misfortune .... oh please.

Haa ha what a world
Well, if you want to be provocative, you better be ready to provoke a reaction. I think it would be better if people learned to put up with such things, from left and right. But that seems unlikely to happen and one needs to face up to that.
Don't dish it out unless you can take as well. What did she think would happen, another righteous asshat.
As I've said before, if you are going to be a democrat in this country you better have your victimhood story all figured out.
Not sure why this tabloid stuff belongs on a site dealing with war,military matters, jihadism, political science...Can we soon expect to have full coverage of Ivanka Trump's wardrobe and Chuck Schumer's summer vacation plans?
I can imagine this is not as pleasant for you because of your extreme views. But posting bullshit about hookers peeing in a Moscow hotell room is totally ok without any evidence. Give me a break with your lame double standards.
The reason why I posted this is because she did have an impact beyond the U.S. borders. It is what I meant when I said we live in a global village .... when people from other countries look at how we treat our leader's .... it has an impact on how they see us .... in turn this has an impact on how their leaders respond. And while much of what happens between nation states is still dependent on what is in the self interest of a country .... these little things do alter perception .... and it is certainly being used by governments that are not friendly to the U.S..
Viva Trump

I never heard of this 'comic' before she did her little stunt.
I don't feel sorry for her, for the fact that she's now putting on the water works and blaming Trump for her misery.
I hate political correctness. And I don't like Trump either (although do enjoy the fact that he's the US President, ha!) but her little stunt was a bit too much.
Silly girl.

Yes .... silly girl who is out of her league.
But blaming Trump and his family .... playing the victim card makes it worse (for her).
All she needs to do do is look in the mirror and blame herself
, her reaction of now blaming her victim smscks of a rapists mentality.
Now to knock snoop dog off his perch

Griffin can take her trump head - and her shitass self pity cram them where it hurts.
"So 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.”
Inciting violence against a duly elected president is "tabloid stuff"? Give me a break.
Kathy just made great agitprop ... for the other side.
What is even better is that the other side does not have to exaggerate or lie.
All they have to do is give the unvarnished balls out Kathy.
Other Lefties & liberals like what she did. They just cannot admit it publicly.

Kathy was engaged in politics. That is she was engaged in war.
