==About==
Donald Trump is an American businessman, hotel magnate and occasional politician. He attended [[Herbert Garrison]]'s unveiling ceremony for the IT alongside other wealthy investors, like [[Bill Gates]] and [[Steve Jobs]]. His whereabouts since this incident are unknown, but he did not seem to seek political office a second time... instead, it was Garrison who ran for President on a similar platform.

He bares a striking resemblance to the former [[Canadian President]], whom Garrison later assassinated.

==Behind the Scenes==
During the U. S. Presidential Election, 2016, which spanned [[Season Nineteen|Seasons Nineteen]] and [[Season Twenty|Twenty]], Donald Trump was represented primarily by [[Herbert Garrison]] and his presidential campaign.

Matt and Trey worried during production for "[[Where My Country Gone?]]" that Trump's long-shot campaign would not last, and worried the episode would not have a shelf life, though they felt whoever won the election would be "good for comedy". They also sought to deny Trump the "satisfaction" of appearing on their show, and thus used [[Herbert Garrison]], and briefly the [[Canadian President]] instead.

On November 9, 2016, Trump was elected 45th President of the United States, despite forecasts to the contrary, and the episode "[[Aw, Jeez]]" was re-written hastily as a result, with Garrison adopting some of Trump's mannerisms going forward, and not longer a prominent wig resembling Trump's hair.

In episodes since "[[Members Only]]", President Garrison has primarily acted as a representation of President Trump in the ''South Park'' universe, tweeting angrily, passing legislation, and declaring war; although some episodes, such as "[[Sons a Witches]]", do feature Garrison primarily as himself.
