Vice President JD Vance gave a short response to South Park, as the show skewered him and other Trump administration figures in the second episode of the latest season.
“Well, I’ve finally made it,” Vance wrote on X, linking to the show’s post featuring a mini version of him standing next to Donald Trump, ala Tattoo and Mr. Rourke on Fantasy Island.
This was Vance’s debut appearance on the show.
In the episode, per Deadline’s Dominic Patten, Vance offers “a small tribute to Sean “Diddy” Combs via a promise of a massage of sorts to the fallen angel. ‘Would you like me to apply the baby oil to Satan’s assh*le, boss?’ inquires Vance about a potential MAGA ménage à trois.”
Much of the episode was devoted to ICE and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, including a raid on heaven.
The White House previously blasted the show, after it’s Season 27 premiere featured Trump in cahoots with Satan.
Last month, a White House spokesman said, “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.”
With a particular emphasis on “public face” Secretary Kristi Noem, Wednesday’s ‘Got a Nut’ episode took on the Department of Homeland Security’s abductions of undocumented immigrants, as well as U.S. citizens. In a poignant back-and-forth between DHS and South Park, the burgeoning federal agency actually featured one of the show’s images of masked agents on social media to link to a recruiting site.
South Park‘s response, before last night’s scathing episode, was: “Wait, so we ARE relevant?”
Turns out they are to the Veep also. On the other hand, Trump has not responded, yet.
