South Park parodies Trump by rebranding as 'South America'
The satirical animated television show 'South Park' has changed its branding to 'South America' in what appears to be a parody of former U.S. President Donald Trump's alleged practice of renaming geographic locations. The show's title card was altered to 'South America' during a recent episode. Reports suggest this rebranding is a commentary on Trump's alleged geographic name changes. The show's creators also stated the new title was 'inspired by bravery and patriotism,' referencing tech companies Apple and Google's capitulation to Trump's requests to rename Lake Ontario to 'Lake America'.
