On a recent episode of the for-some-reason-still-ongoing 2016 election-based podcast “With Her”, the special guest was ‘HER’, Hillary Clinton. On the show she spoke about Kathy Griffin and her woes:

“They were selling T-shirts and mugs at the Republican Convention with Trump holding my head. Nobody said a word. Not a word!”
So about that. First of all, the media was out in force at the RNC, and there were articles written by leftist sources about the mean merchandise being sold, and yes there were mean shirts that called Hillary names and showed, in some, Hillary being punched.
However no one seems to have a picture of a shirt or mug From the RNC with Trump holding her head.
Even the Huffington Post had to admit, in their piece about the aforementioned podcast appearance, that they can’t find anything about this shirt.
It’s not clear if such severed head merchandise existed, but HuffPost reporters saw lots of other offensive anti-Clinton merchandise on display at the convention
However, in looking for such a shirt, we DID find some other things:
Wonkette, a liberal pro-hillary blog, was selling this shirt during the campaign:

And they seemed happy about it too.
And there was also this!

And no one said a word. Not a word!
Until now, I suppose. Still, hypocrisy much?
