Soooooo. Secret Service paid Tom Arnold a little visit. I’m not sure what sparked the visit, but I’m assuming it was either the now-deleted tweet which read, “Next time Kathy [Griffin] won’t be holding his fake head!” or this one:
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

Either way, Secret Service stopped by, and Arnold is really butthurt by it. He released a statement and tried to make it all about Donald Trump, because Tom is an adult who is totally unable to accept that he’s an unhinged freakshow.
“Thank you David Corn for your fine work as always. Thank you US Secret Service for risking your lives keeping democracy safe,” Arnold wrote. “I appreciate you coming to my home on what must’ve been a busy day. I heard your message loud & clear. Words matter. Tone matters. Words can incite violence. Be responsible.”
“I’m sorry Donald Trump hasn’t listened to you all the times you’ve had this exact conversation with him,” he continued. “I’m sorry the President & White House say things that they know could incite violence on the media & US Citizens almost daily.”
I’m fairly certain Trump hasn’t “joked” about holding up bloody heads, but mmmmmkay bucko.
“I’m sorry because Secret Service agents are more at risk than anyone & as I learned you are people with kids just like me who just want to know the best place to trick or treat,” he added.
