Donald Trump issued a threat to comedian to Trevor Noah after comments he made about the president at the Grammys last night.
Comedian Trevor Noah hosted the Grammys on February 1, and throughout the night, he made several jabs at Donald Trump. However, it was one joke that seemed to really get under the president’s skin.
Before the award for Song of the Year, Noah made reference to Trump’s incessant demands for Greenland as well as his former relationship with disgraced pedophile and financier Jeffrey Epstein.
Noah said: “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."

Clinton has denied any knowledge of Epstein’s criminal activities despite knowing him prior to his death.
Ghislaine Maxwell has claimed that Bill Clinton was a friend of hers, not of Epstein. She also denied that Clinton was involved in any of Epstein’s crimes.
Trump has also repeatedly denied any knowledge of Epstein’s crimes and has distanced himself from him.
All the same, this joke seemed to annoy Trump enough that he said he would 'have fun' with Noah by bringing him legal troubles.
In a furious response, Trump took to Truth Social and condemned the comedian, using many of his typical insults for those in the entertainment industry.
He said: “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.
“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.
“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!”
