Republicans and Democrats agree: Kathy Griffin did something disgusting.
Griffin who you might know from, um, Suddenly Susan and reality shows I guess? posed in a blue dress with the fake, decapitated head of Donald Trump in a photo.
It's gross. Seriously, if you're eating something right now, look away. OK, here's the photo, via TMZ:

She was trashed on social media by liberals and conservatives.
This is vile and wrong. It is never funny to joke about killing a president. https://t.co/zIiuKoMyFw

.@kathygriffin I'm sorry but that is totally inappropriate and so very offensive. And I have to believe you're smart enough to know better.

Our politics have become too base, too low, & too vulgar, but Kathy Griffin's post descends into an even more repugnant & vile territory.

There are plenty of other tweets, too, but it's a toxic cesspool that pretty much boils down to "SEE THIS IS LIBERAL HATE" and "TRUMP SUPPORTERS BASICALLY DID THE SAME THING TO OBAMA."
This sums it up:
my feed today has mostly been liberals disgusted by Kathy Griffin and conservatives asking why liberals aren't denouncing Kathy Griffin

In case you're wondering, yes, people are tweeting about it to the Secret Service, who seem to be indirectly responding to the outrage.
On it! @SecretService has a robust protective intelligence division that monitors open source reporting & social media to evaluate threats

Griffin responded to the whole thing with a reference to a Trump comment about NBC (and former Fox News) host Megyn Kelly.

2/ OBVIOUSLY, I do not condone ANY violence by my fans or others to anyone, ever! I'm merely mocking the Mocker in Chief.

And so this stupid year rolls on.
Updated 8:04 PM ET:
Kathy Griffin issued an apology on Twitter.
"I sincerely apologize," she said in a video. "I went way too far. The image is too disturbing. I understand how it offends people."
She then said she was asking the photographer to take it down. "I made a mistake and I was wrong."
I am sorry. I went too far. I was wrong. http://pic.twitter.com/LBKvqf9xFB
