Depp condemned after Trump assassination comments

A White House official has come out in criticism of Johnny Depp after he said that he would like to assassinate the President.  They said ‘President Trump has condemned violence in all forms and it’s sad that others like Johnny Depp have not followed his lead.’ The spokesperson then encouraged others in the profession to support the condemnation of violence as they would if such an accusation was made at a Democrat.

Depp made the comments while appearing on stage at Glastonbury Festival in the United Kingdom on Thursday. Depp said When was the last time an actor assassinated a president? He added that while he doesn’t consider himself an actor maybe it’s time for history to repeat itsself. The Secret Service declined to comment when questioned about if Depp was under investigation for his comments.
