White House upset by 'South Park' episode mocking Donald Trump

In the first episode of the new season, this line from the president also begs Satan to sleep with him, but the devil rejects his advances, partly because his penis is too small.

The episode, in which the fictional Trump tramples on many aspects of American life, ends after the town of South Park reaches a financial agreement with the president, including a commitment to produce public service announcements.

The following AI-generated short film—purportedly one of those messages—shows an overweight Trump staggering through a desert, while a narrator presents him as a kind of modern-day Jesus.

The parody ends with a naked and haggard Trump, as the narrator declares, "Trump. His penis is tiny, but his love for us is immense."

Jokes that the White House did not appreciate.

"This show has been irrelevant for over 20 years and is barely holding its own with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt to gain attention," said spokeswoman Taylor Rogers.

"President Trump has delivered more in just six months than any other president in the history of our country, and no amount of fourth-rate stuff can undermine President Trump's string of successes," she said.

The satirical series is in its 27th season and is doing wonderfully.

"Adding eyes to the penis"

Its creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone have just signed a $1.5 billion deal with Paramount, allowing the American studio to broadcast the entire series on its Paramount+ streaming platform for five years worldwide, according to the Los Angeles Times.

This agreement also includes the production of 50 new episodes.

During a panel Thursday at San Diego Comic-Con, the world's largest pop culture festival, Matt Stone and Trey Parker revealed recent internal discussions regarding the depiction of a fake presidential penis.

"They were like, 'OK, but we're going to blur the penis.' And I was like, 'No, you're not going to blur the penis,'" Parker told the audience.

After "a whole conversation between a lot of adults over about four... days," Parker explained that they decided to add eyes to the penis to prevent it from being blurred.

The acquisition of the rights to "South Park" comes at a delicate time for Paramount.

The US telecommunications regulator, the FCC, approved its merger with the production company Skydance on Thursday, subject to editorial changes at CBS, a highly unusual condition.

The agreement comes at the end of a period in which Paramount settled a legal dispute with Donald Trump in early July over a CBS interview with Kamala Harris, and then announced the end of "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert," whose host is highly critical of the American president.

Within the American left, many voices have denounced these decisions as pledges of submission to Donald Trump in order to be able to complete the merger with Skydance.
