President Donald Trump and his administration have been moonlighting as movie critics ever since they got back into the White House — and it was only a matter of time before they gave an overly serious response to the latest episode of South Park.
South Park just premiered its 27th season after a long, messy battle with executives at Paramount. The studio has had its fair share of battles lately — won some, lost some — and emerged from the fray looking more than a little dubious. The one that has stuck in the public’s mind is their out-of-court settlement with Trump, to the tune of $16 million, which ended up playing a big part in securing their merger with Skydance.
