D-list celebrity Kathy Griffin’s latest publicity stunt is so horrific, she has since been compared to ISIS.
In a bizarre photo shoot that lacked any logical public relations advice, the notoriously shocking photographer Tyler Shields captured Griffin holding Trump’s bloody severed head.
The image, obtained by TMZ, drew backlash from public figures all across the nation, even the Secret Service who is reportedly investigating the photo and “the circumstances surrounding the photo shoot.”
Griffin has been vocally critical of Trump in the past, creating a mock advertisement during his presidential campaign in which she repeatedly told him to “f*ck off.”
But this latest stunt went too far, even for liberal celebs.
CNN host Anderson Cooper set the record straight on his opinion of the photo:
For the record, I am appalled by the photo shoot Kathy Griffin took part in. It is clearly disgusting and completely inappropriate.

Even the daughter of Trump’s ex-rival Chelsea Clinton tweeted out condemning Griffin for the horrific image:
This is vile and wrong. It is never funny to joke about killing a president. https://t.co/zIiuKoMyFw

Media analyst Mark Dice called out Griffin for her likeness to terrorists in a tweet:

Trump himself took to the social media platform to acknowledge how difficult the image has been for his children to see:
Kathy Griffin should be ashamed of herself. My children, especially my 11 year old son, Barron, are having a hard time with this. Sick!

After nationwide backlash, Griffin began to see her paycheck disappearing.
She has co-hosted CNN’s coverage of New Year’s Eve in the past but that appearance is now clearly in jeopardy.
CNN called the images “disgusting and offensive” and said in a statement, “We are evaluating New Year’s Eve and have made no decisions at this point.”
But it gets even worse for Griffin. She’s even too disgusting for bathroom products!
The bathroom product company Squatty Potty, inventor of the foot rest intended to improve your posture while sitting on the toilet, said in a statement Tuesday that it has suspended an ad campaign featuring Griffin.
After losing multiple jobs, Griffin realized an apology was necessary for her career and posted a video to twitter in which she acknowledged she “crossed the line.”
