In the thirteenth and final episode of season one of Our Cartoon President, titled "Loyalty Oath," the show takes a satirical look at the concept of loyalty oaths and tests of loyalty within political campaigns.
As the episode begins, Donald Trump is preparing to celebrate his one year anniversary in office. However, his staff is concerned that the Republicans in Congress may not be completely loyal to him and are secretly working against his agenda. This fear is heightened by the recent release of the infamous "Steele dossier," which alleges that the Russians have compromising information on Trump that could be used to blackmail him.
To combat this perceived disloyalty, Trump decides to implement a loyalty oath for all of his staff members. Meanwhile, his son Donald Jr. is preparing for a meeting with a Russian lawyer who claims to have damaging information about Hillary Clinton.
The episode takes a humorous approach to the idea of loyalty, with various characters struggling to prove their devotion to Trump. One staff member, Mike Pence, goes to great lengths to demonstrate his loyalty, even going so far as to don a "Make America Great Again" onesie.
As the Russian meeting approaches, tensions rise within the Trump camp. Some staff members are worried about the legality and morality of the meeting, while others are excited about the potentially damaging information that could be uncovered about Clinton.
Throughout the episode, there are several jokes and satirical jabs at the Trump administration and its handling of various issues. For example, during a discussion about immigration policy, one character suggests building a wall made of "vaping flavors."
The episode culminates in a dramatic and unexpected twist, leaving viewers unsure of what will happen in the next season of the show.
Overall, "Loyalty Oath" is a witty and entertaining look at the concept of loyalty in politics. The show manages to strike a balance between humor and satire, while also touching on some serious and topical issues. Fans of the show will no doubt enjoy this finale episode, and will be eagerly anticipating the next season.
