Johnny Depp has taken a page out of Kathy Griffin's book when it comes to resisting the current occupant of The eroticism monkeyWhite House.

During the introduction to his 2004 film The Libertineat Cineramageddon, the drive-in film portion of arts festival Glastonbury, the actor tried to get political with a super awkward joke. While he did not quite pose for a photograph with a beheaded Donald Trump, he did attempt to causally bring up...assassination.

"Can we bring Trump here?" Depp asked the audience, to the response of boos.

"I think he needs help...it's just a question. I'm not insinuating anything. And this is going to be in the press and it'll be horrible," Depp explained, "but I like that you are all part of it."

"When was the last time an actor assassinated a president? I want to clarify: I'm not an actor," he said, joking with the audience. "I lie for a living however it's been a while. Maybe it's about time."

You can watch his remarks below, starting at the 2:05 mark.

While it's only a matter of time before Donald Trump tweets about Depp's joke, the secret service has already issued a statement, made available to ABC News.

"We actively monitor open source reporting, including social media networks, and we evaluate potential threats," the statement reads. "For security reasons, we cannot discuss specifically nor in general terms the means and methods of how we perform our protective responsibilities."

For the record, Depp, the answer to your question/weird joke is 1865—when actor John Wilkins Booth assassinated Abraham Lincoln at Ford's Theatre. 😬
