Trump Responds to Trevor Noah’s Grammys Remark With Legal Threat

Described Trevor Noah as a “poor, pathetic, talentless dope of an MC” and threatened legal action, saying, “Noah better get his facts straight . . . I’ll be sending my lawyers to sue this poor, pathetic, talentless, dope of an MC and suing him for plenty$.”

Referenced previous legal settlements and suggested Noah might regret the comment.
Importantly, while Trump denied the suggestion in Noah’s joke, no credible evidence has emerged in these or any public federal filings that Trump visited Epstein’s private island or was accused of doing so by law enforcement — and the Department of Justice has cautioned that some mentions in the released files included “untrue and sensationalist claims.”

Trump’s post drew intense media attention not only for the substance of the threat, but also for its tone and the broader context of political combat between entertainment figures and political leaders.
