In the episode, actor Gary Cole plays a POTUS hopeful who shares obvious similarities with Donald Trump, including massive wealth and a boorish attitude. The campaign trail, as you might have guessed, is thrown into an uproar when a woman accuses the character of rape. The first air date would have been just after the notorious Access Hollywood recording, in which Trump spoke of using his fame to make sexual advances on women, and just before the third and finale debate. The second back-pedaling for the episode came after numerous sexual assault allegations against Trump surfaced.
