When it comes to finding a romantic partner, Trevor Noah has some new advice for women: Find a man who’s willing to commit fraud for you, like Donald Trump apparently tried to do for Melania.
According to a report this week from The Washington Post, a whistleblower from Truth Social revealed that the twice impeached former president pushed another executive to give some of his shares in the social media company to Melania Trump and then fired him when he didn’t comply.
“Which is just … so romantic!” Noah joked. “Yeah ladies, find you a man who will commit securities fraud for you! Are you kidding?”
Joking somewhat aside — it is Trevor Noah after all — the late night host noted that giving your wife shares in your company is “a weird gift,” noting that it sounds more like Trump forgot Melania’s birthday and was scrambling to find something to give her at the last minute.
“The funny thing is, Truth Social is such a failure of a company, that she probably didn’t even want the shares, you know?” Noah said. “It’s almost like when your kids give you that gift, but it’s just like a piece of macaroni art for your birthday. She was probably just like, ‘Oh, so cute, you think this is worth something. Thank you Donald.'”
All that said, Noah added that he’s actually on Donald Trump’s side in this situation — because everyone else involved should’ve expected something like this to happen.
“It’s the year 2022. If you go into business with Donald Trump, and you are surprised that you got scammed, that’s on you,” Noah said. “What were you thinking? ‘I know the last guy Trump worked with almost got hanged by an angry mob, but I think I’m gonna turn out fine!”
