Barron Trump thought something terrible really happened to his father when he first saw Kathy Griffin's decapitated head image on TV. The youngest son of Donald Trump was reportedly in front of the TV watching a show when the news came on and the bloody image appeared on the screen.
Sources tell TMZ that the 11-year-old boy panicked and screamed, "Mommy, Mommy!" The source explain, "He's 11. He doesn't know who Kathy Griffin is and the head she was holding resembled his dad."
President Trump has slammed Griffin for the disturbing image and claimed that his family, especially his son Barron, was having a hard time dealing with it. "Kathy Griffin should be ashamed of herself. My children, especially my 11 year old son, Barron, are having a hard time with this. Sick!" he tweeted.

FLOTUS Melania Trump also reacted to the photo in a statement, "As a mother, a wife, and a human being, that photo is very disturbing. When you consider some of the atrocities happening in the world today, a photo opportunity like this is simply wrong and makes you wonder about the mental health of the person who did it."
Griffin has apologized for the controversial image, but the damage was already done. CNN has decided to cut ties with the comedian, firing her as a co-host of the network's annual New Year's Eve coverage following the beheaded image.
