JD Vance reacts to brutal parody in latest 'South Park' episode
Published in Entertainment News
“South Park” continued with its blistering mockery of the Trump administration in the second episode of the latest season.
In “Got a Nut,” which debuted on Wednesday, the Comedy Central cartoon set its aims on Vice President JD Vance, two weeks after unleashing on Trump in the season premiere.
But unlike the White House, which reacted with anger over Trump’s portrayal, Vance is taking the high road in his response to the parody of him and the president starring in an episode of the ’80s TV series “Fantasy Island.”
“Well, I’ve finally made it,” the VP wrote on X Thursday morning, linking to the “South Park” post featuring him depicted as the MAGA leader’s servant, inspired by the show’s sidekick character of Tattoo.
Trump, in the role of Mr. Rourke — whose resort island in the Pacific promises to fulfill almost any fantasy — becomes so annoyed with Vance that he kicks him off screen.
Political theater fans and pundits have been tuned into the Emmy-winning animated series since it skewered Trump in the season 27 premiere, depicting him getting into bed with Satan, who makes fun of the president’s manhood.
White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers issued a statement after the episode aired, declaring the long-running series is irrelevant and “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 said.
“South Park” creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone later gave a cheeky non-apology for mocking the president.
“We’re terribly sorry,” Parker said with a deadpan stare during a panel at San Diego Comic-Con.
