It's no secret that The Simpsons has a knack for predicting the future, and they may have done it again. Fans have long been amazed by the show's uncanny accuracy, and it turns out that it's not always just a coincidence.
The show's latest eerie prediction was in a 2015 mini-episode called Trumptastic Voyage. In the opening scene, Homer Simpson is seen being paid to hold a sign at a Donald Trump rally. As fate would have it, he ends up standing behind Trump on an escalator and even touches his infamous hair in an attempt to cure his own baldness.
However, things take a bizarre turn when Homer gets sucked into Trump's hair, which seems to have a mind of its own. As he floats around, he passes by a sign that reads Trump 2012, Trump 2016, Trump 2020, and finally Trump 2024. This last prediction has raised eyebrows, especially since Trump actually became the President of the United States in 2017, just two years after the episode aired.
Could this be another instance of The Simpsons accurately predicting the future? Trump's campaign to "make America great again" is well-known, and he has announced his intention to run for re-election in 2022. If he wins, he will become only the second US president to serve two non-consecutive terms, after Grover Cleveland in the late 1800s.
In 2020, Trump won a record-breaking victory in Iowa, securing more than 50% of the vote and setting the stage for his re-election bid. On the other side, President Joe Biden is also running for a second term in the White House. The winner will be announced on November 5, and the inauguration ceremony is scheduled for January 20, 2025.
This is not the first time that The Simpsons has seemingly predicted future events. In several episodes, they have been eerily accurate in predicting things like Lady Gaga's performance at the Super Bowl, the Coronavirus pandemic, and even the tragedy of the Titanic sinking.
In a 1994 episode called Lisa vs Malibu Stacy, the show also seemed to foresee Trump's arrest, although it was in a slightly different context. In the episode, a newsreader announces that "the president was arrested." While in The Simpsons, the unnamed president was arrested for murder, in real life, Trump was charged in an election subversion case in 2020.
It's not just future events that The Simpsons has predicted, but also real-life scandals. In one episode, they take a satirical jab at the college admissions scandal involving celebrities and wealthy parents. The show's writers have a knack for poking fun at current events and making them a part of their storylines.
