After the release of the picture/video of Kathy Griffin holding President Trump's severed head, I expected the Trump family to unload on her. I expected they'd be firing insults with both barrels - the kind of fury Trump usually reserves for Rosie O'Donnell. That didn't really happen. To my surprise, they were pretty calm about it.
They were angry, yes, but the usual Trump bombast didn't appear. If we're being honest, we should admit that people have received far worse for far less.
…And maybe that’s the point. Maybe Griffin’s attack was so disgusting - so incredibly over the top - that they didn't need to draw attention to it. The anti-Trump left had suffered such a massive self-inflicted wound that that the Trumps could just sit back and watch it all unfold. Griffin had just exposed the inner workings of the liberal mind, photographed it, and put it on the internet for all to see.
