Sitcom king Chuck Lorre has fired back at Donald Trump’s White House using the season premiere of his hit CBS show.

The legendary TV creator and philanthropist has been feuding with the White House after he berated the Trump administration while accepting an award at a Project Angel Food fundraiser on Sept. 26. Lorre, the 73-year-old behind Two and a Half Men and The Big Bang Theory, called Trump “that bloated orange piece of s--t in the White House,” compared “coldhearted” Melania Trump to “the warm, funny” former first lady, Michelle Obama, and slammed Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s health policies. He later asked American voters to rid the country of the current administration in the November midterms.

“I’d like to beg the [Democratic National Committee] to run from the suicidal insanity of the far-left woke culture in the coming election, [and] urge them to seek the common-sense middle ground that emanates from the hardworking, blue-collar heart and soul of America,” said Lorre.

“God, grant me the serenity to no longer give a s--t about all the stupid people in this country,” he concluded, “The courage to say Donald Trump is a Russian asset who traded teenagers with Jeffrey Epstein, and the wisdom to end on a cheap laugh.”

The White House did not take Lorre’s remarks well. Spokesperson Davis Ingle told Fox News, “Chuck Lorre should immediately seek psychiatric help to treat his severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has completely rotted his peanut-sized brain.”

In response, Lorre found a creative way to troll the White House.

During the Season 3 premiere of his CBS sitcom, Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage, Lorre used the vanity card in the credits to deliver a brutal, facetious message.

“A spokesperson for the White House recently announced that I need psychiatric help,” the man known as the “King of Sitcoms” wrote.

“I don’t disagree. I’m not a big fan of mood-altering drugs or electroshock therapy, you know, ‘Cuckoo’s Nest’ stuff, but I would be up for a chat with a trained professional who gently encourages me to seek out childhood experiences that negatively impact my thinking and behavior,” he continued.

“(A possible culprit could be weekly atomic bomb drills in grade school. This involved hiding under my desk to avoid being cut to ribbons from the classroom windows imploding.) It might also be worth investigating if toxins in my environment bear any responsibility for my ‘derangement.’ (Can’t ignore all those mesothelioma commercials.) Regardless of how we proceed, I do appreciate this very public concern for my mental health.”

“It’s comforting,” he wrote, “To know my government is looking out for me.”
