The animated world of South Park has never shied away from controversy, but its ongoing, evolving parody of Donald Trump has become one of the show's most enduring and shocking storylines. As of December 11, 2025, the series has just concluded its latest, most outrageous arc, which saw the former President star in a multi-episode saga involving a demonic pregnancy, political lawsuits, and a shocking Christmas finale.
Creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone have masterfully used the character, initially through the stand-in Mr. Garrison and now as a direct caricature, to satirize everything from "woke" culture and political polarization to the Jeffrey Epstein files and the chaos of the modern political landscape. This guide breaks down the essential episodes that define the Trump parody era, focusing on the newest and most absurd plot points.
The Evolution of the Trump Parody in South Park: A Character Biography
The character representing Donald Trump in *South Park* is not a single entity but an evolving target of satire, reflecting the real-world political changes. This dual approach—using a stand-in and then the direct caricature—allowed the show to maintain its signature absurdity while offering sharp, timely commentary.
- The Stand-In: Mr. Herbert Garrison
- First Appearance as Parody: "Where My Country Gone?" (Season 19, Episode 2, 2015).
- Role: A xenophobic, politically incorrect teacher who runs for President on an anti-immigrant platform, becoming a clear, if exaggerated, stand-in for Donald Trump's 2016 campaign.
- Key Arc: He successfully wins the presidency, leading to the "President Garrison" era in Season 20, where he struggles to fulfill his campaign promises and repeatedly expresses a desire to "get out" of the job.
- The Direct Caricature: Donald Trump
- First Direct Appearance: The character is often shown directly, or as a very specific caricature, especially in the newer seasons (Season 27 onwards) where the show moves away from the Garrison character as the primary parody.
- Role: The newest arc (Season 27-28) depicts him in a bizarre, intimate relationship with Satan, focused on their "unborn baby" (the Antichrist).
- Key Arc: This storyline is the most recent and shocking, dealing with themes of abortion, political lawsuits, and the blurring of political and demonic chaos.
The Foundational Parody: The Mr. Garrison Era (Seasons 19-21)
The initial phase of the Trump parody was centered on Mr. Garrison, a longtime character whose sudden, chaotic political rise mirrored the 2016 election cycle. These episodes established the show's commitment to continuous, serialized political satire.
1. "Where My Country Gone?" (Season 19, Episode 2)
This episode is the genesis of the *South Park* Trump parody. Mr. Garrison, enraged by Canadian immigrants, delivers a series of increasingly inflammatory speeches that propel him into the political spotlight. The episode culminates in a shocking, hyper-violent scene where Garrison "rapes" the Canadian President to death, a brutal, signature *South Park* metaphor for the destruction of international relations. This episode set the tone for the entire arc: absurd, aggressive, and politically charged.
2. "Oh, Jeez" (Season 20, Episode 7)
Following the election, Garrison is now President-Elect, and the town of South Park is in chaos. The episode explores the immediate aftermath of his win, with the citizens realizing the gravity of their choice. Garrison, overwhelmed and unqualified, is seen attempting to sabotage his own presidency. The entire season, which also features the "Turd Sandwich" and "Giant Douche" election parody, serves as a bleak commentary on the state of American politics and the electorate's choices.
The Newest and Most Shocking Storylines (Seasons 27-28)
In the most recent seasons, *South Park* has dropped the Mr. Garrison stand-in for a more direct, yet equally bizarre, caricature of Donald Trump. The storylines have become increasingly surreal, connecting the former President to supernatural and demonic entities.
3. "Sermon on the 'Mount" (Season 27, Episode 1)
Airing in the most recent season, this episode immediately established the show’s renewed focus on Trump. The plot centers on Cartman and Butters lamenting the "death of woke" culture after President Trump cancels NPR, leading to a suicide pact. Meanwhile, the town of South Park faces a lawsuit from the President himself over their protests. The title is a play on the Sermon on the Mount, with Jesus returning to deliver a message about the absurdity of the current political climate, tying the political chaos to a higher, more ridiculous power.
4. "Conflict of Interest" (Season 27, Episode 5)
This episode deepens the most shocking storyline of the entire series: President Trump is in a relationship with Satan, who is pregnant with the Antichrist, their "butt baby". The episode's dark humor revolves around Trump's attempts to terminate Satan's pregnancy without his knowledge, highlighting the political battle over reproductive rights through a demonic lens. The plot also draws in other political figures, such as JD Vance, who is shown assisting Trump in his bizarre schemes. This storyline ensures the show remains at the forefront of controversial, topical satire.
5. "The Crap Out" (Season 28, Episode 5)
The finale of Season 28, which aired on December 10, 2025, delivered the epic conclusion to the Trump-Satan baby saga. Titled "The Crap Out," the episode sees Satan go into labor with the Antichrist. The storyline is a whirlwind of dark humor, with the baby's grim fate being revealed in a twist that parodies real-world conspiracies, including references to the Jeffrey Epstein files. The episode is a masterclass in topical authority, blending the most sensational political news with the show's signature supernatural absurdity, solidifying its place as the most recent and arguably most outrageous Trump parody to date.
Topical Authority and Lingering Impact
The *South Park* Trump episodes, helmed by creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, have had a massive cultural impact, often being cited as some of the most daring political satire of the modern era. By evolving the parody from the Mr. Garrison character to a direct, yet surreal, caricature of Donald Trump, the series ensures its commentary remains fresh and relevant.
The show’s willingness to tackle sensitive entities like the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, political figures like Peter Thiel and JD Vance, and cultural shifts like the "woke is dead" movement, all while keeping the core characters—Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny—involved, maintains its unique brand of humor. The ongoing arc of the Antichrist baby is a perfect example of *South Park*'s strategy: taking a real-world figure and placing them in an impossibly absurd, yet culturally resonant, situation to maximize topical authority and viewer engagement.
Whether you are a long-time fan or a political observer, these episodes provide a shocking, hilarious, and often uncomfortable mirror to the current state of American society. The show continues to prove that no topic, no matter how sensitive or political, is off-limits.
