'South Park' Just Spent So Much Money to Make Trump and Vance's Night of Passion Perfect

The licensing fees for the mood music couldn't have been cheap

Just as the real President spares no expense when making himself comfortable in the White House, Trey Parker and Matt Stone opened up the Paramount checkbook to give Donald Trump and J.D. Vance a night they’ll never forget.

In tonight’s new episode of South Park, “Sora Not Sorry,” President Donald “Saddam Hussein” Trump’s troubled sex life took a dramatic turn when, fresh off the revelation of Vice President Fat Baby J.D. Vance’s betrayal from the previous episode, Trump came around on his diminutive second-in-command, then Trump came on Vance, then in him. Yes, even though Trump has been f—ing Satan for the last few months (or few decades, really), the President just started a high-powered affair with his fittingly child-sized sidekick that shook Fox News to its core.

While Trump and Vance were able to play off their accidental sex tape as an invention of generative A.I., the passion they shared that night was very real, as was the check that Parker and Stone's parent company had to cut Atlantic Records over South Park's outstanding use of Foreigner's famous power ballad “I Want to Know What Love Is” during the climactic scene.

Seriously, while the song choice for the Trump-Vance sex scene was absolutely, 10/10, no-notes perfect, you have to imagine that Parker and Stone are still sticking it to Paramount when they demand that their parent company shell out whatever sizable sum is required to score a thirty-second sex scene with “I Want to Know What Love Is” just to piss off the President. The certified platinum single is Foreigner's biggest hit by far, and there's no way the band accepted less than six figures to let South Park use the song to stick it to the President – or to the Vice President, it's hard to see who was the bottom.

Hopefully, the sex scene and the song choice don't end up cost Parker and Stone, as the real Trump and Vance are certainly going to hear about what happened tonight between their South Park characters, and “Sora Not Sorry" may very well spur them to action, depending on how long the chorus stays stuck in their heads.
