That twitchy guy with the sniffles who used to be married to Roseanne Barr may have just earned himself a visit from the Secret Service. Tom Arnold challenged Donald Trump to a fight, because that’s what the left is doing these days, and then he took it a little further with a threat that really looks like he wants to decapitate the President. I think it’s safe to assume that Arnold is no longer looking for those Trump N-word tapes and is trying a new tactic to take him down.
President Trump held a rally in Montana last week for Republican Rep. Greg Gianforte. If that name sounds familiar it’s because Gianforte once got into a physical altercation with Guardian reporter Ben Jacobs in what the liberal media described as a “bodyslam.” At the rally, President Trump praised Gianforte as “a tremendous person” and “a tough cookie” which naturally triggered all liberals. “How can Trump call a guy who bodyslammed a member of the press as being tough? He’s worse than Hitler!”
Which brings us to tough guy Tom Arnold, who wants to take Trump on in some kind of cage match:
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. #FridayFeeling https://t.co/ITthF7dFWc

Some Twitter rando suggested a couple of names for potential referees in Arnold’s fantasy fight:
Megan Kelly should officiate for any blood drawn!
— Lori Pruzansky (@Loripru) October 19, 2018
Or Kathy Griffin!
— Lori Pruzansky (@Loripru) October 19, 2018
Which prompted Arnold to tweet this thing:
Next time Kathy won’t be holding his fake head!

Arnold didn’t explicitly say he intends on decapitating President Trump, but he sure as hell implied it. Kathy Griffin of course is the unfunny comedian who destroyed her already pathetic career by taking photos of herself holding a bloody fake severed Donald Trump head. In Arnold’s tweet he indicates that after his fight with Trump, Griffin (the referee) won’t be holding a fake head, but rather Trump’s actual decapitated head. In Arnold’s attempt at trash talk, he’s saying he’s going to beat the President so bad that he’ll literally rip Trump’s head off.
Arnold’s ex-wife Roseanne had her career destroyed earlier this year when she made a mildly racist joke about former Obama aide Valerie Jarrett. Arnold just threatened to assassinate the President of the United States, will his career also be destroyed?
That was a trick question because Arnold doesn’t have a career and you can’t destroy something that doesn’t exist. The only thing he has going on is a lame TV show for Vice, where he runs around trying to find some mythical tapes of outtakes from The Apprentice in which Trump allegedly uses the N-word. Spoiler alert: he doesn’t find these tapes that he’s been talking about since Trump was elected in 2016.
Obviously this is not a serious threat but the law doesn’t make that distinction. You threaten the Prez, you broke the law. The only thing that might save Arnold’s ass on this one is that for some reason in the Age of Trump death threats against the POTUS aren’t treated with much urgency. When Obama was in the White House any sort of criticism was a hate crime, but now threatening to decapitate Trump is more of a free speech kind of thing.
