“South Park” does not respect the president’s authoritah — and the White House isn’t happy about it.
The show’s Season 27 premiere, titled “Sermon on the Mount,” brutally mocks President Donald Trump. The episode, which aired Wednesday night, features Trump suing everyone who upsets him, numerous jokes about the president having a small penis, and a correlation between Trump and Saddam Hussein by making the president Satan’s new lover. (In the 1999 movie “South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut” Hussein and Satan are embroiled in a very toxic romantic relationship.)
The episode also includes a scene in which Trump tries to initiate sex with Satan but is rebuked, per The Washington Post. Apparently Satan tells the president that he’s “not in the mood right now” because someone on social media said Trump is on the “Epstein list.”
In response to the episode, the White House told Rolling Stone that the long-running animated series is a “fourth-rate” show and said the episode is emblematic of the left’s “hypocrisy.”
“The Left’s hypocrisy truly has no end — for years they have come after ‘South Park’ for what they labeled as ‘offense’ [sic] content, but suddenly they are praising the show,” Trump White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers told Rolling Stone in a statement Thursday. “Just like the creators of ‘South Park,’ the Left has no authentic or original content, which is why their popularity continues to hit record lows. This show hasn’t been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention. President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country’s history — and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump’s hot streak.”
