The Simpsons predict Trump
November 11, 2016 at 11:47 am
In 2000 The Simpsons predicted Trump would be president, they even showed him descending that golden escalator, and when Lisa Simpson takes over( this was a future episode) She said Trump left us with a huge budget crunch. They might be right about that last part too. Uh Oh!!!!!

At this point, an animation would be an improvement over Trump.

I think Back to the Future Part II did a better job. Nike made those self-lacing shoes, the Cubs won the World Series, and Biff became President. They were just one year off.

Quote:Interestingly the Simpsons had an episode where Trump had been president.
The writers said it was to represent America at an absolute Nadir, at the worst possible moment with the worst possible president.

Somehow I don't think Lisa Simpson will be the next President. I hate to break it to you, but she's a cartoon character.
That never stopped Trump.

The resemblance between Biff and Trump was
intentional.
