About this episode

Donald Trump, on trial for 91 counts of naughtiness, tries a wild gambit: getting Santa to testify that he is on the nice list, pardoning him of all charges. Santa refuses, but that doesn’t stop Trump as he enlists the help of Elon Musk to turn Trump into Santa himself in order to clear his name. Can the real Santa stop Trumpy Claus in time to save Christmas?
