That was back when they were joking about Trump being president, decades before he actually ran.

He had a very brief campaign in 2000 that they were riffing on. Everyone forgot that it happened, so now Groening et al. get to look like prognosticators.

I know right? It's like a triple prediction, absolutely wild

Is that really true? That is amazing. What episode / season is this?

of course it isn't. first of all, it was not decades before. it was in 2000. and second of all it was only because of this
