"The Simpsons" predicted that Donald Trump would become President of the United States: True or false?

Yes, the Simpsons had the prediction first, back in the year 2000! In an episode called "Bart to the Future," Bart gets a glimpse at his adult self: He's a Duff-swilling slob like his father, but his sister Lisa has grown up to be president of the United States ("America's first straight female president," to be exact). As President Simpson tells her aides in one scene: "As you know, we've inherited quite a budget crunch from President Trump..."

OMG, why don't you Americans get over yourselves? Do you have to abuse each other over politics? All politicians are crooked no matter who is in power.

Jeannie Ellis, Politics is a frickle topic. The USA had a simple choice, Clinton v Trump. If it was Trump v anybodyelse, anybodyelse would have won. In voting for Hilary you would have had Bill, hence the term Billary. The people of America remember Bill term of office, his lies, his sexual shenanigans. In short they did not want him in. But by voting Trump into the White House you actually broke the monopoly. I call it USEXIT after our BREXIT. After Reagan, history has proved is Presidency more successful now then at the time. After that you had Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama, so what would have happened if it wasn't for Trump, well Clinton for 8 years followed by Jeb Bush, then perhaps Michelle Obama (which I believed would be successful, women and girls listen to her every word), and then dare I say another Clinton in Chelsey's husband. This needed breaking, and broken it was.

Believe it or not I had to go Majority Vote on that, thanks for your help. I have never seen one episode of The Simpsons so really had nothing to go on.
