Donald Trump has issued a legal threat against Trevor Noah, labeling him a “total loser,” following a quip by the Grammys host that hinted at Trump and Bill Clinton’s alleged visits to Epstein’s island.
The former president lashed out at Noah for his joke that implied Trump was interested in acquiring Greenland because “with Epstein’s island gone, he needs a new one to hang out with Bill Clinton.”
Trump vented his frustration over the “practically unwatchable” awards show on Truth Social in the early hours of Monday morning.
“The host, Trevor Noah, whoever he is, is almost as dreadful as Jimmy Kimmel at the Low Ratings Academy Awards,” Trump raged.
He vehemently denied Noah’s allegations, stating, “Noah said, INCORRECTLY about me, that Donald Trump and Bill Clinton spent time on Epstein Island. WRONG!!!”
Trump further clarified, asserting that while he “can’t speak for Bill,” he has “never been to Epstein Island, nor anywhere close,” and emphasized that until Noah’s “false and defamatory statement,” he had never been accused of such by even the “Fake News Media.”
He then suggested he may make Noah the latest subject of a lawsuit for defaming him.
‘Noah, a total loser, better get his facts straight, and get them straight fast. It looks like I’ll be sending my lawyers to sue this poor, pathetic, talentless, dope of an M.C., and suing him for plenty$.’
He cited his successful cases against George Stephanopoulos, whom Trump referred again to as ‘Little George Slopadopoulos,’ and ABC News, as well as CBS, who televised the Grammys.
‘Get ready Noah, I’m going to have some fun with you!’
Donald Trump threatened a lawsuit against ‘total loser’ Trevor Noah after the comic cracked a joke suggesting the president and Bill Clinton having been on ‘Epstein’s island’ at the Grammys
The president trashed the ‘virtually unwatchable’ ceremony before taking aim at the former Daily Show host (pictured) after he said that Trump ‘wants Greenland’ because ‘with Epstein’s island gone, he needs a new one to hang out with Bill Clinton’
The South African comedian ripped both the commander-in-chief and former President Bill Clinton after both their names were revealed in another document dump of Epstein files from the Department of Justice.
‘Song of the Year, that is a Grammy that every artist wants almost as much as Trump wants Greenland, which makes sense because Epstein’s island is gone, he needs a new one to hang out with Bill Clinton,’ Noah joked before introducing the Song of the Year category.
The former Daily Show host then repeated that this was his last year hosting, asking: ‘What are you gonna’ do about it?’
His joke comes just two days after the Department of Justice released at least three million pages of documents linked to disgraced financier Epstein.
Although Trump and Clinton’s names appeared in the document, both have denied any wrongdoing and have not been accused of any crimes linked to Epstein.
The president has already threatened to sue the Epstein estate for conspiring with anti-Trump author Michael Wolff ‘to hurt me politically.’
The comedian had mostly avoided politics on the night but saved his most pointed joke for someone who was absent.
‘Nicki Minaj is not here,’ Noah said, to big cheers from the audience at Crypto.com Arena.
The South African comedian ripped both the commander-in-chief and predecessor Bill Clinton amid Hollywood celebrities before introducing the Song of the Year category
‘Song of the Year, that is a Grammy that every artist wants almost as much as Trump wants Greenland, which makes sense because Epstein’s island is gone, he needs a new one to hang out with Bill Clinton,’ he cracked
‘She is still at the White House with Donald Trump discussing very important issues.’
Minaj this week visited and praised the president, the culmination of a move toward MAGA that she’s made in recent months.
Noah broke into a Trump impression. ‘Actually Nicki, I have the biggest a**, everybody´s saying it Nicki.’
He packed much of the politics into one joke, when he said Lauryn Hill was performing on the show for the first time since 1999.
‘Do you understand how long ago that is?’ he said. ‘Back in 1999, the president had had a sex scandal, people thought computers were about to destroy the world, and Diddy was arrested.’
It continued a wave of celebrities espousing left-wing and anti-Trump opinions during the ceremony.
Billie Eilish was censored by the broadcast while saying ‘f*** ICE’ and also said that ‘no human is illegal on stolen land.’
The 24-year-old Los Angeles native was emotional as she earned Song Of The Year for WILDFLOWER while accompanied by brother FINNEAS.
During her speech she said: ‘As grateful as I feel, I honestly don’t feel like I need to say anything but that no one is illegal on stolen land.
Rapper Bad Bunny was one of several artists who made political statements on the Grammys broadcast

‘And, yeah, it’s just really hard to know what to say and what to do right now, and I feel really hopeful in this room, and I feel like we just need to keep fighting and speaking up and protesting, and our voices really do matter, and the people matter. That’s all I’m going to say. Sorry. Thank you so much. I can’t believe this.’
Many artists at the event wore ‘ICE out’ pins following the controversial agency or the killings of Keith Porter in LA and Renée Good and the VA ICU nurse Alex Pretti in Minneapolis at the hands of its agents.
Earlier in the night, Bad Bunny made a similar political statement.
The 31-year-old Puerto Rican global superstar’s – born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio – first words were ‘ICE out’ when he hit the podium to accept Best Música Urbana Album for DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS.
The NUEVAYoL hitmaker – who will be performing at the Super Bowl LX Half-time Show at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California next week – said: ‘Before I say thanks to god, I’m going to say, ICE Out.’
He received a massive ovation from the crowd before he continued his speech by saying that immigrants and Puerto Ricans are not savage, animals, or aliens and that they are in fact, Americans.
Bad Bunny continued by saying not to be consumed by hate as he gave a positive message during his speech, ‘The hate gets more powerful with more hate. The only thing that is more powerful than hate is love.
‘So, please, we need to be different. If we fight, we have to do it with love. Yeah. We don’t hate them, we love our people, we love our family, and that’s the way to do it, with love. Don’t forget that, please. Thank you. Thank you, god! And thank you to The Academy.’
