The Season 27 premiere of the Comedy Central animated series, "South Park", has stirred controversy this week. The episode, which aired on Wednesday, July 23, features Trump crawling into bed with Satan, a reference to the president's recent attacks on the media.

South Park goes right for President Donald Trump's jugular in the first episode of Season 27. The episode sees Trump in bed with Satan, a callback to 1999's South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, which featured Satan in a relationship with Saddam Hussein.

One day after hitting back at The View over Joy Behar's claim that Donald Trump was jealous of Barack Obama's looks, the White House has again taken aim at a Hollywood institution in a statement to Entertainment Weekly criticizing South Park 's satirical depiction of the president seducing Satan in bed.
