Comedy Central animated series South Park took aim at President Donald Trump’s Secretary of War Pete Hegseth Wednesday, calling him a “douchebag,” in an episode that aired on the same day that two National Guard members were gunned down by a radicalized Afghan migrant in Washington D.C.
The show’s Hegseth parody began with the Secretary of War dressed in a pseudo military uniform being thrown out of the South Park police station after he showed up demanding officers release Peter Thiel.
“I don’t think you understand,” the ineffectual Hegseth yelled. “You’re messing with the Department of War!”
The episode also slams Hegseth for his social media posts, and presents him as a man more interested in creating online content and getting social media
