Kathy Griffin who, believe it or not, once fancied herself a comedian, emerged from the shadows to survey the American scene as we enter a new Trump world.

Griffin posted a video on social media this week providing insightful commentary and level-headed analysis. Just kidding. She did as she normally does, ranted like a deranged lunatic.

The "My Life on the D-List" star was quick to warn that America is slow-rolling its way into a dictatorship and suggested a second term under Donald Trump would mean the LGBT community wouldn't be able to walk down the street without risking life and limb.

“I don’t think our beloved country, America, knows what it’s in for with a fascistic society and dictator. I’m not being hyperbolic. I’m not being dramatic," she began her rant, looking disheveled and being both hyperbolic and dramatic.

Griffin lamented that Kamala Harris likely lost because people did not get out to vote and were too cowardly to stand up against Trump. You know, like she is now doing ... on social media ... days after the election. So brave. So stunning.

“Gays, you may not be safe. So to be gay in America, much less trans because they’re obsessed with trans people, to be LGBT in America is no longer gonna be a safe thing anymore,” she warns. “To be a woman in America is gonna be even less safe than it already is."

Gays being unable to walk down the street because Trump is president might come as a surprise to people like activist Scott Presler, who deserves a Presidential Medal of Freedom for literally running his car into the ground criss-crossing the state in trying to get Republicans registered to vote in Pennsylvania.

It might also come as a surprise to the former acting director of national intelligence, Richard Grenell, who was the first openly gay member of a presidential cabinet — sorry, Mayor Pete — under Trump's first administration (and whose name is in the running for one of multiple cabinet positions in the second). 

As for women not being safe in Trump's America, Susie Wiles might have a point of contention. Wiles was just named the President-elect's Chief of Staff, the first woman ever to hold the job.

Just one week ago, @mcuban said President Trump doesn’t surround himself with strong intelligent women.

Today President @realdonaldtrump makes history by naming Susie Wiles the first woman White House Chief of Staff BECAUSE she is strong, intelligent, and hardworking. Great… pic.twitter.com/vM6Rjpyz22

Griffin goes on to urge folks who might be feeling the same way she is to "gather support" and "if you’re afraid to walk down the street, get more politically active.”

The faux comedian has herself gathered support in the past for her own issues, revealing last year that she has been diagnosed with “complex PTSD.”

She linked that diagnosis to her very public downfall following an ill-advised stunt featuring her holding a replica of Trump’s severed bloody head.

The stunt was widely criticized when it came to light in 2017, with Griffin posting the graphic and shocking image as if it would be received as a humorous joke.

The opposite happened, with people on both sides expressing disgust over the image. This sent Griffin into panic mode, and she issued less-than-genuine apologies when she realized her career was on the line.

Once she realized she’d be losing work regardless as a toxic entity, Griffin spitefully withdrew her apologies and has refused to express remorse ever since.

And now we're back to, "He's a fascist. He's a dictator. Gays will die."

The jokes — most of them featuring Carrot Top somewhere in the punch line — practically write themselves. But I'd like to think I'm above such juvenile antics. I'm not, but I'd like to think that.

And apparently, neither are you guys.

Perhaps the most compelling part of Griffin's public nervous breakdown is when she throws Taylor Swift under the bus for helping get Trump elected, something she acknowledges will get blowback from the Swifties.

“I know this will get me in trouble, but I really, really wish Taylor Swift had done an event with Vice President Harris in Pennsylvania two months ago,” Griffin said. “She is so powerful, and it’s not fair that the weight of the world is on a pop star’s shoulder."

Yes, because everybody came out of the election thinking, "Ya know, if Harris did just one more appearance with an out-of-touch celebrity who has no idea how much butter costs, it would have sealed the deal."

Beyoncé, Lizzo, Bruce Springsteen, J-Lo, Cardi B, and Usher didn't do the trick. But Swift surely would have prevented the landslide and subsequent red wave on election day.

Griffin concluded, "I just did not realize how racist and misogynistic America still is.”

It's funny that the left has come out and, almost as if they were all issued the same single talking point on how to respond to their defeat, just blasted well over half the country as racist and misogynist. They've repeated that assessment non-stop.

That should serve them well in future elections. Keep playing from the same playbook, we dare you.
