Tom Arnold under fire after thinly-veiled threat against Trump: ‘Next time Kathy won’t be holding his fake head’

Over the weekend, Trump-hating actor Tom Arnold challenged President Trump to a fight and then compounded that with a thinly-veiled threat suggesting the president should be beheaded.

“I say put up or shut up @realDonaldTrump Me vs You. For America. First body slam wins. Any Rally. Any Time. Between now & the midterms,” he tweeted.

After one person suggested that alleged comedian Kathy Griffin officiate the matchup, Arnold then went over the top.

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

The statement was made in reference to a photo in which Griffin held a facsimile of Trump’s bloody, severed head.

Naturally, Arnold’s statement didn’t sit too well with many:

We’re not sure there really is any help for those who suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Others reached out to Twitter:

Good luck with that.  Leftists, as we’ve noted here several times, are allowed to issue death threats on the platform while conservatives are routinely banned for doing practically nothing.

Then there’s this take:

How much worse will this insanity get?
