How many times have we watched this dance? A prominent, left-wing entertainer crosses the line. Then they issue a phony apology designed to appease the angry and salvage their career. Usually, it's of the "I'm sorry if people were offended" variety - something that's not actually an apology at all. Never mind that their initial instinct was one of murdering a political opponent. It's art... or something.
We saw this play out with President Bush's head on a pike in a Game of Thrones episode.
We saw it - sans apology - in a Snoop Dogg video where the rapper assassinated President Trump.
