After evidently spending his Sunday night watching the Grammy Awards, Donald Trump threatened to sue host Trevor Noah over an Epstein island joke he made during the broadcast. Noah made the joke after Trump’s name was mentioned numerous times in the latest batch of Epstein documents.
During the broadcast of the 68th annual Grammy Awards on Sunday, February 1, host Trevor Noah — the comedian podcaster that used to host The Daily Show — made a joke about former President Bill Clinton and current President Trump making visits to Epstein’s infamous island, where numerous crimes took place.
In the 3 million Epstein documents that were released last week, President Donald Trump is mentioned more than 1,000 times.
“There you have it, song of the year! Congratulations, Billie Eilish. Wow. That’s a Grammy that every artist wants — almost as much as Trump wants Greenland. Which makes sense because, since Epstein’s gone, he needs a new island to hang out with Bill Clinton. I told you, it’s my last year! What are you going to do about it?”

President Donald Trump has threatened to sue Trevor Noah over an Epstein island joke he made while hosting the 68th annual Grammy Awards
In his latest attack on free speech, Trump then threatened to sue Noah for his remarks, while continuing to claim that he’s never been to Epstein island (he has not, however, denied any of the specific allegations that were listed in the recently released documents).
“The Grammy Awards are the WORST, virtually unwatchable! CBS is lucky not to have this garbage litter their airwaves any longer. The host, Trevor Noah, whoever he may be, is almost as bad as Jimmy Kimmel at the Low Ratings Academy Awards,” the President of the United States posted on his social media website around 1 in the morning.
“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 being there, not even by the Fake News Media,” he continued.
“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!”

Among the allegations against Trump in the latest batch of Epstein files are numerous, yet still unconfirmed, instances of sexual assault, including of a 13-year-old girl.
