Feb. 2 (UPI) -- President Donald Trump has threatened to sue Trevor Noah over a joke the comedian made while hosting Sunday night's Grammy Awards.
"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$," Trump said Sunday night in a statement on his Truth Social media platform.
Trump frequently pursues lawsuits against critics and media organizations over comments he says damaged his reputation, drawing criticism from opponents who accuse him of trying to silence dissent.
Noah, a South African comedian who has hosted the Grammy Awards since 2021, attracted the ire of the American president with a joke about Trump's relationship with the convicted sex offender and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.
