Had enough of Donald Trump's tweets about absolute nonsense? Stephen Colbert seems to think so. The comedian is taking a break from dragging the president on his talk show by bringing viewers an animated cartoon series about all of the shenanigans within the Trump administration instead. Our Cartoon President is described as follows: "In this parallel cartoon universe, the Commander-in-Chief opens the White House doors for an 'all access' look at a typical day in the life of the President of the United States, Donald Trump."

In a recent report from Variety, Colbert elaborated on the purpose of the parody program. "I am well aware of how fast the news moves these days,” he said. “The show does not exist to serve that. The show is the interpersonal relationships of the people you don’t get to see.”

Our Cartoon President officially premieres on February 11 at 8:00pm ET on Showtime. Surely, Trump will tweet a rant about it in due time. Watch the hilarious trailer in the video, above.
