South Park swings at “helpless loser” Donald Trump after election embarrassment for Republican Party

*South Park* used its latest episode to mock Donald Trump over Republican losses in the US midterm elections, with a character calling him a “helpless loser”. The jibe links the show’s political satire to Trump’s public questioning of the results.

In the episode, Mr Garrison tells students the president took a “severe beating” before saying the show would not make jokes about him that week. Trump had questioned the election’s honesty in a Truth Social post on 9 November. The article also recalls earlier episodes depicting Trump in crude and sexualised scenes, and a White House statement accusing the political left of hypocrisy over its response to the show.
