The long-running animated series The Simpsons has once again proven its reputation for predicting the future. This time, the incident, which came to the fore when President Biden withdrew from the nomination race and supported Kamala Harris, may have been predicted in an episode of The Simpsons broadcast in 2000.
Did The Simpsons know about Kamala Harris’ presidential candidacy?
In the Simpsons episode “Bart to the Future,” Lisa Simpson is depicted as the first female president of the United States. In this episode, Lisa wears a very similar outfit to the one Kamala Harris wore at her inauguration in 2021, with a purple suit and a pearl necklace and earring combination. This similarity attracted attention with a post shared on social media by Al Jean, one of the writers of the series.
Coincidence or prediction?
Al Jean stated that this similarity was purely coincidental. However, the images shared on social media and the series’ past predictions had a great impact among the audience. It was previously claimed that The Simpsons predicted the acquisition of 20th Century Fox by Disney in the 1998 episode “When You Dish Upon a Star”. This prophecy also came true in 2017.
Trump and Lisa Simpson’s presidency
The episode “Bart to the Future” also predicted another big event. In the episode, President Lisa Simpson expresses the budget problem she inherited from Donald Trump. The Simpsons thus predicted Trump’s presidency and the first female presidential candidate to follow. Time will tell how much of this prediction will come true.
