South Park creators explain why they refused to blur Trump's penis during incredibly bold episode

The controversial episode sparked a response from the White House

South Park fans were recently left gobsmacked about a NSFW joke made on the popular animation.

South Park is known for taking swipes at people in the public eye, with the likes of Lizzo and the Jonas Brothers being at the butt of some jokes on the show.

But it's Donald Trump that's been joked about in a recent episode that said that the POTUS had a 'small penis'.

The White House wasted no time in responding to the episode that fans of the show branded 'the ballsiest thing that [South Park's creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone] have ever done'.

White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers shared with Rolling Stone: "The Left’s hypocrisy truly has no end - for years they have come after South Park for what they labeled as ‘offensive’ content, but suddenly they are praising the show."

Rogers went on: "Just like the creators of South Park, the Left has no authentic or original content, which is why their popularity continues to hit record lows. This show hasn’t been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention.

"President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country’s history - and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump’s hot streak."

Yikes.

Parker has since addressed the incident at Comic-Con International in San Diego and said (in a disingenuous manner) that they're 'terribly sorry' about it as the crowd burst into laughter.

While the controversial episode aired, Parker and Stone did get some pushback from the network, Comedy Central, about not blurring the fictional version of the president's penis.

It was said to be Comedy Central's only note on the episode. With that in mind, the network said it was going to blur Trump's manhood, but Parker insisted that it wasn't pixelated.

According to Parker, he told the network that 'if we put eyes on the penis, we won’t blur it', adding: "And then that was a whole conversation for about four f**king days. It’s a character," Variety reports.

South Park isn't the only TV show that the White House has raged about of late. The View's Joy Behar has also been at the brunt of a scathing statement shared by the administration after she made some remarks about Trump being 'jealous' of Barack Obama.

The White House said of her sentiments, per The Independent: "Joy Behar is an irrelevant loser suffering from a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome."
