Schneider has been doing injury management and releasing statements like this one:
Significantly, people? That is my remaining touch upon this. I neither stated nor implied any such factor. Regardless of headlines claiming in any other case, in my submit, I completely didn’t name for an act of violence or threaten a U.S. president as many different celebrities have achieved up to now. I recommend you re-read my precise submit and take note of the phrases earlier than believing this nonsense.
It’s my place, which I’m entitled to have, that a few of our nations leaders in Washington have misplaced their approach, and corruption runs rampant, each on our nation’s borders and overseas, Transparency and accountability should occur to ensure that our constitutional republic to outlive. There isn’t a menace implied or in any other case in that assertion.
Kathy Griffin was canceled and misplaced a variety of work as a consequence of an image for {a magazine}, however John Schneider thinks that it’s completely superb to tweet a name for President Biden to be publicly hung a couple of years after there have been nooses on the Capitol and chants for the then Speaker of the Home and the then vice chairman to be hung.
Calling for the president to be hung, even whether it is disguised as a perception goes to draw the eye of the Secret Service.
John Schneider has gone a good distance down the best wing rabbit gap since enjoying ‘only a good outdated boy, by no means that means no hurt.’ on The Dukes Of Hazzard again within the day, and now the Secret Service could come knocking on his door.
