WASHINGTON, DC: 'South Park' fans were left in stitches as Donald Trump’s running mate JD Vance made his first-ever appearance in the show’s latest episode, which aired Wednesday, August 6.
This came after the brutal Season 27 premiere, titled 'Sermon on the Mount', which took repeated jabs at the president, going so far as to portray him in a manner similar to Saddam Hussein in the 1999 feature-length movie, 'South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut' — ill-tempered, conniving, and cruel.

'South Park' mocks JD Vance in another Donald Trump-themed episode
The new 'South Park' episode, 'Got A Nut', centered around ICE and immigration, featured JD Vance in a now-viral scene at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort.

The show depicted Vance as noticeably smaller than Trump, using an already memed image of him with an enlarged face.
In his first line on the show, the vice president announces, “The plane is here from immigration and customs enforcement,” to which Trump snaps back, “I know stupid, let’s go.” In a follow-up gag, Trump kicks Vance and yells, “Will you get out of here?”

White House slams 'South Park' as a 'fourth-rate show' over Season 27 premiere
Following the sharp jabs in the Season 27 premiere, White House Assistant Press Secretary Taylor Rogers told Rolling Stone in a statement, “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.”
He added, “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,” Rogers concluded.

In response, South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker mockingly said at Comic Con, “We're terribly sorry.”
The episode additionally mocked Paramount’s recent $16 million settlement over a lawsuit Trump filed over the editing of a '60 Minutes' interview with Kamala Harris during the 2024 election.
