The segment, which rehashed some of the biggest headlines from the controversial “Fire and Fury”, did not sit well with Donald Trump Jr. While his father has been silent on the politically-charged Grammy Awards, which also made multiple mentions of the infamous “sh*thole countries” phrase allegedly used by the President in reference to African nations, his son fired two tweets about Clinton’s appearance.
Getting to read a #fakenews book excerpt at the Grammys seems like a great consolation prize for losing the presidency. #GrammyAwards

U.S.’s UN Ambassador Nikki Haley, who was forced to publicly deny a “disgusting” rumor about an affair with the President, fueled by Wolff, also slammed the skit, calling it “trash”:
I have always loved the Grammys but to have artists read the Fire and Fury book killed it. Don’t ruin great music with trash. Some of us love music without the politics thrown in it.

Live-tweeting the Grammys, Trump Jr. also took a shot at Grammys attendee Jay-Z just hours after his father criticized the music mogul over his comments on CNN.
Now do how he speaks about women. There may be something out there???? https://t.co/glV4lyVlSP
