It seems that he\u2019s been trying to get his hands on a Labudu doll as a gift for his girlfriend\u2019s birthday. But then he runs afoul of \u2026 Trump\u2019s tariffs. The following shot from the forthcoming episode has another unhappy couple \u2014 sweethearts Satan and Trump, who descend the staircase of Air Force One.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tWhile the spot gives only a little to chew on or anticipate as Wednesday\u2019s episode approaches, it still looks to be another unimpeachable blend of up-to-the-moment satire, the daily struggles of the kids and parents of South Park with biting, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/lists\/south-park-celebrity-spoofs-moments\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">take-no-prisoners-and-pick-no-sides <\/a>political spoofs. After all, it\u2019s that combination that has propelled the series into its 27th season and helped the show smash its own record for ratings in the season premiere in August.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tSo far, Season 27 has seen an outcry of Jesus entering the local schools, a coupling of the sitting president with Satan himself and an outrage in the titular Colorado town that led to a lawsuit from Trump, which brought a \u201ccan\u2019t unsee it\u201d PSA for Trump, complete with a talking penis.
