The topics of Greenland and Jeffrey Epstein are no joke — especially for President Donald Trump.
The president took exception to a joke “pathetic” Trevor Noah made while hosting the Grammy Awards Sunday night, Mediaite reported.
He now says he will sue Noah over the “false and defamatory” joke.
After Billie Eilish won the award for Song of the Year, Noah said, “Congratulations, Billie Eilish. Wow, that’s a Grammy that every artist wants — almost as much as Trump wants Greenland.
“Which makes sense because, since (Jeffrey) Epstein’s gone, he needs a new island to hang out with Bill Clinton. I told you it’s my last year [hosting]! What are you going to do about it?”
Watch:
In response, Trump went on Truth Social shortly after 1:00 a.m. for his rebuttal when he said he will sue Noah just like he did ABC and CBS.
Trump started his post by criticizing the “WORST, virtually unwatchable” awards show and said Noah was “almost as bad as Jimmy Kimmel” hosting the “Low Ratings Academy Awards.”
He continued with a rant about the Epstein joke.
“Noah said, INCORRECTLY about me, that Donald Trump and Bill Clinton spent time on Epstein Island. WRONG!!!
“I can’t speak for Bill, but I have never been to Epstein Island, nor anywhere close, and until tonight’s false and defamatory statement, have never been accused of being there, not even by the Fake News Media,” Trump wrote.
“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$.
“Ask Little George Slopadopolus, and others, how that all worked out. Also ask CBS! Get ready Noah, I’m going to have some fun with you!” Trump continued.
Noah was not the only one to take jabs at national happenings throughout the show.
Many blasted Trump’s ICE raids on illegal immigrants Justin Bieber and Kehlani were just two who wore white-and-black “ICE OUT” pins. Kehlani yelled “F*** ICE” while accepting an award early in the night.
Bad Bunny, who is scheduled to perform at the Super Bowl next Sunday, received a standing ovation for his anti-ICE acceptance speech. Eilish also criticized Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigrants.
“No one is illegal on stolen land,” Eilish declared.
