During
the Grammy Awards last night the M.C., Trevor Noah, took a shot at
Donald Trump. No surprise there. He did however at least strongly
imply and maybe outright assert that Trump had history of Epstein and
Bill Clinton ON "Lolita Island." Trump has repeatedly denied any such
thing ever happened and I expect he is telling the truth or the falsity
of it would have surfaced by now.
In any event Trump is PISSED and is asserting that he might very well sue Noah, and presumably the Academy as well.
It
is hard to defame a public figure but there might be enough there to do
it. As I understand it (I could be wrong) there is a multi-step
threshold. The statement has to be false, the person making the
statement has to know it is false and have made the statement anyway
knowing it is false with intent to damage.
There
just might be some there there. It will be interesting to see what
Noah and the Academy will do if Trump goes ahead with it.

I never watch any award shows. Hollywood has gone to Hell.
