South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone were in attendance at San Diego Comic-Con on Thursday night, just one day after the season 27 premiere of their long-running animated comedy series took major shots at Donald Trump. Naturally, the iconic comedic duo were asked about the headline-making episode during their panel.

Titled “Sermon on the ‘Mount”, the season 27 premiere of South Park portrayed Donal Trump as having a micro-sized manhood, being in the Epstein files, using Christianity as a guise to line his own pockets, and being in a romantic relationship with Satan.

Dating Satan was a role that South Park famously filled with Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein prior to his death, with Satan saying in the episode that Trump reminds him of his ex-lover, explaining that they’re “exactly alike.”

South Park also gave Trump a photo-realistic face that hinges at the mouth instead of animating him in its classic style, which is a gag they’ve used in the past with the likes of Hussein, Mel Gibson and Ben Affleck

“Sermon on the ‘Mount” also made fun of Trump’s voters, whining liberals on National Public Radio, people who rely on ChatCPT, CBS acquiescing to Trump’s demands and canceling The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

Appearing at SDCC on Thursday, Parker and Stone were obviously asked about the episode and snarkily said that they’re “terribly sorry.”

Later in the panel, the pair revealed that the promotional material they made to tease the season was entirely made up and they never plan on using any of it.

A few hours prior to SDCC, the White House released a statement in response to South Park’s portrayal of Trump, saying that the series — which just landed a $1.5 billion deal for 50 episodes from Paramount — is “fourth-rate.”

“The Left’s hypocrisy truly has no end — for years they have come after South Park for what they labeled as ‘offense’ [sic] content, but suddenly they are praising the show,” Trump White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers told Rolling Stone in a statement.

“Just like the creators of South Park, the Left has no authentic or original content, which is why their popularity continues to hit record lows. This show hasn’t been relevant for over 20 years and is 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.”

The second episode of South Park‘s 27th season will premiere on Comedy Central next Wednesday, July 30.
