“South Park” is back to once again mock President Donald Trump — and this time, Vice President JD Vance, too.

The Comedy Central show took aim at the president, as well as Vance and Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, in its latest episode, “Got A Nut,” which aired on Aug. 6.

The episode revolves around school counselor Mr. Mackey being fired from his job and, because he’s desperate for money, joining Immigration and Customs Enforcement. A parody ad for the federal agency mocks its recruitment process, with a jingle declaring, “We don’t ask for experience, just show up!”

    Noem’s face crawling across the floor was horrifyingly fantastic. And the dogs…

    Am I the only one just tired of South Park? Cool, they shit on Trump. Like, I don’t know what having him have sex with Satan does.

    The dude is funding and facilitating death camps by diverting funds from disaster relief programs.

    Our country is two years into directly funding and defending a genocidal state.

    I can’t bring myself to care enough to watch what fart and sex jokes the “enlightened centrist” at South Park have to make about it.

    I’m just a bitter humourousless old man now I guess.

      Hey, totally get it. On the other hand, can’t you see that literally everyone else got their nose brown? It’s climatic to see that at least some authors have an audacity to do such show. Not for long though.

          It’s an old drama series from the late 70s. Essentially it’s an exclusive private island. Guests were granted so-called “fantasies” on the island for a price. JD Vance portrayed as Tattoo. Tattoo would run up the main bell tower to ring the bell and shout De plane! De plane! to announce the arrival of a new set of guests at the beginning of each episode. In later seasons, he arrives in his personal go-kart, sized for him, and recklessly drives to join the host for the visitor reception while the staff scramble out of his way.

          So the parallels between Epstein island and other things lined up so well overall.

            Also ran well into the 80’s with new episodes.

            The my also rebooted it twice. Once in the 90’s and once recently. I don’t know if Tattoo made a comeback, so only people 35 and up might get that reference.

    I wonder if they didn’t purposefully work to encourage this inevitable clusterfuck for content when they downplayed how fucked-up Trump is in Season 20.
