\n\tSouth Park<\/em> is continuing to needle Donald Trump and his administration as Season 27 continues. Comedy Central shared a teaser trailer for Episode 3, which is titled \u201cSickofancy.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tIn the trailer, beloved character Towelie, the pot-smoking anthropomorphic towel, arrives in Washington, D.C. on a bus, where he encounters soldiers and military tanks. Towelie approaches the White House lawn as dark clouds loom overhead and tanks roll by, declaring, \u201cThis seems like the perfect place for a towel!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \n\tTowelie, voiced by Vernohn Chatman, first made an appearance in Season 5, Episode 8, which established him as a genetically-engineered, drug-addicted talking towel. He has appeared in most seasons of South Park<\/em> since. <\/p>\n \n\tSouth Park<\/em>\u2019s latest episode comes after Trump deployed the National Guard in D.C., saying that the city was \u201cbecoming a situation of complete and total lawlessness\u201d and he had to \u201cto rescue our nation\u2019s capital from crime, bloodshed, bedlam and squalor and worse.\u201d As recently as January, the Department of Justice was\u00a0touting\u00a0the fact that violent crime in Washington, D.C., \u201cis the lowest it has been in over 30 years.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tTrump also suggested he may seek to deploy the National Guard to other cities as he did to Los Angeles in June, following protests against Immigrations and Customs Enforcement raids. He mentioned Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Baltimore, and Oakland.\u00a0\u201cWe have other cities also that are bad,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019re not going to let it happen. We\u2019re not going to lose our cities over this. And this will go further. We\u2019re starting very strongly with D.C., and we\u2019re going to clean it up real quick, very quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n \t\tTrending Stories<\/p>\n<\/h2>\n \n\tSo far this season, South Park has skewered Trump\u2019s \u201cteeny tiny\u201d penis, portrayed him in bed with Satan, depicted Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem gunning down puppies, and shown Vice President J.D. Vance as Trump\u2019s Dr. Evil Mini-Me-size sidekick.<\/p>\n \n\tThe next episode of South Park<\/em> airs Wednesday, Aug. 20 at 10 p.m. ET on Comedy Central and next day on Paramount+.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" South Park is continuing to needle Donald Trump and his administration as Season 27 continues.
