Donald Trump takes a surprising turn in the latest South Park episode, ramping up the shock factor.

South Park's 27th season is currently airing on Comedy Central and Paramount+, and it's making headlines for its controversial and satirical take on current events. The latest episode, the season's fourth, has been going viral and beating viewership records.

In the latest instalment, the global craze of Labubu takes centre stage, but it's the surprising storyline involving Trump and recurring character Satan that has caught everyone's attention. Trump is seen dodging questions from reporters about First Lady Melania Trump's whereabouts, a scene that mirrors real-life events.

Satan confirms a relationship with Trump and reveals that she is pregnant, a revelation that has sparked a wave of discussion online. The show's depiction of Trump and his administration continues to be a source of controversy, but it hasn't deterred the show's creators, Matt Stone and Trey Parker, from holding back in their criticism.

The show has depicted Donald Trump with a micro-penis, JD Vance as the president's minion, a deeply unflattering version of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, satirized ICE, and depicted Trump's federal takeover of Washington D.C.'s police. These scenes have not gone unnoticed, with the White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers dismissing the show, saying it "continues to hit record lows" and "hasn't been relevant for over 20 years."

However, the numbers prove otherwise. The second episode of Season 27 averaged 6.2 million global multiplatform viewers in its first three days of release, a significant increase from previous seasons. The show has also achieved its highest live ratings on Comedy Central since 2018.

Even Donald Trump Jr. has shown his support for the show, with a recently unearthed post from two years ago praising South Park. His post has received over 131,000 likes. A social media user wrote about the new episode, saying "haha, so true man! did you see the new one yet?"

Despite Rogers' dismissive comments, it's clear that South Park's 27th season is resonating with audiences worldwide. Whether you're a fan of the show or not, it's hard to deny the impact that South Park is having on the cultural conversation. The show continues to push boundaries and challenge the status quo, making it essential viewing for anyone interested in current events and satire.
