A 20-second promo released by Comedy Central depicted the recurring character “Towelie” — an anthropomorphic towel — riding in a bus past the U.S. Supreme Court building and White House, where armed troops were patrolling. A tank rolled by in front of the White House.

One of the people in line is Apple CEO Tim Cook, who gifts Trump a plaque on a gold stand — something which did actually happen in real life. (Trump goes on to call him "some dipshit tech CEO.") Later in the episode, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg also makes an appearance to give Trump a gold, jewel-encrusted VR headset.

Washington, D.C., is under siege in the third episode of the Comedy Central show's 27th season, which is undertaking another schedule change for future episodes.
