Donald Trump lashed out at Kathy Griffin on Twitter Wednesday morning following Griffin's Tuesday night apology for a photo shoot in which she was depicted holding Trump's severed head.
Tweeted Trump: “Kathy Griffin should be ashamed of herself. My children, especially my 11 year old son, Barron, are having a hard time with this. Sick!”

Said Griffin in a video posted to social media on Tuesday evening:
“I sincerely apologize…I'm a comic. I crossed the line. I moved the line, then I crossed it. I went way too far. The image is too disturbing. I understand how it offends people. It wasn't funny. I get it. I've made a lot of mistakes in my career. I will continue. I asked your forgiveness. Taking down the image. Gonna ask the photographer to take down the image. And I beg for your forgiveness. I went too far. I made a mistake, and I was wrong.”
