The season 27 premiere of South Park, titled "Sermon on the 'Mount'," has ignited controversy with its provocative portrayal of former President Donald Trump. The episode features a surreal deepfake of Trump wandering naked through a desert in a satirical public service announcement, as well as a scene depicting him in bed with Satan. These depictions have drawn sharp criticism from the White House, which dismissed the show as "irrelevant" and accused it of "uninspired ideas" . Creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone responded at Comic-Con with their signature deadpan humor, saying, "We're terribly sorry" . The episode also satirizes Paramount's recent $16 million settlement with Trump, referencing the network's parent company, Paramount Global .
