Trump Threatens to Sue Trevor Noah Over Grammys Epstein Joke

His threat followed a DOJ release of Epstein files that carried a warning about unverified claims.

Overview

  • Hosting the 68th Grammys, Trevor Noah quipped that Trump wants Greenland because, with Epstein gone, he needs a new island to hang out with Bill Clinton.
  • Shortly after the broadcast, Trump posted on Truth Social calling the show “virtually unwatchable,” labeling Noah a “total loser,” and criticizing CBS.
  • Trump denied ever visiting Epstein’s island and called Noah’s line “false and defamatory,” saying he would send lawyers to sue the comedian.
  • The back-and-forth came days after the Justice Department released millions of Epstein-related records, which it cautioned may include false or fabricated submissions.
  • As of publication, representatives for Noah and the Recording Academy had not publicly responded, and no lawsuit had been filed.
