Comedian Kathy Griffin is taking a swing at the president as she continues her criticism of President Donald Trump.

The comedian suggested on Twitter on Tuesday evening that the president should use a syringe with air, as she responded to CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta noting a remark by Trump.

The president was considering if he should be taking insulin — though he is not known to have a history of being diabetic — as he said during a diabetes event, “I don’t use insulin. Should I be? Huh? I never thought about it. But I know a lot of people are very badly affected, right? Unbelievable.”

“Syringe with nothing but air inside it would do the trick,” Griffin responded, adding, “F**K TRUMP.”

As The Washington Examiner noted, “In medical procedures, air accidentally injected into the body’s bloodstream through syringes or IVs can cause air embolisms, which can be fatal.”

See Griffin’s comments below:

She then responded to the Examiner’s story, tweeting, “I SURE DID, F**KER.”

Griffin’s recent criticism is not new, as she has been critical of Trump in the past — including the well-known time that she conducted a photoshoot with the prop of a fake severed, bloodied head of Trump. More recently, she tore into Trump over testing capacity after she was reportedly denied a test for the coronavirus in March, as IJR previously reported.
