Dan Greaney, a writer for “The Simpsons” credited with accidentally predicting Donald Trump’s presidency, is taking serious issue with the commander-in-chief in a wild video announcing his 2028 presidential campaign.
Greaney, whose 2000 episode “Bart to the Future” foreshadowed Trump’s rise to the Oval Office, wore a Nostradamus-like beard and robe in a clip captioned “Judgement Day Is Here” where he laid out an ongoing “crisis” in the country.
“The United States was founded on a transcendental insight that all men are created equal but now, Trump, Vance, the billionaires, careerists and cowards in both parties have turned their backs on it,” declared Greaney in a clip shared to his social media pages on Tuesday.
“It’s money, power and security for them but not for you. In America, the government is supposed to work for everyone: democracy for all, accountability for all, prosperity for all. We must restore this.”
Greaney, a self-described “progressive Republican,” proceeds to ditch his beard and robe for a suit to highlight his career as a lawyer before summing up his platform in three words: “America for all.”
His platform, per his campaign website, includes expanding the U.S. Supreme Court from nine to 13 seats and holding Trump “accountable” for his “lawlessness.” He also signals his support for universal healthcare and the Green New Deal.
Last year, Greaney used his “prophet”-like character to predict that the “end is near” for the Trump presidency and proclaimed to see who won’t be president next: “JD Vance or anyone else in Trump’s inner circle.”
“They rose with him, and they’ll fall with him. And as for JD, he’ll be tossed out like an old, well, you know,” said the writer as the camera panned to a filthy couch.
Greaney, in another zany clip on Tuesday that sees him making a smoothie and preparing to shower while in character, said the “crisis” in America is bigger than Trump, Vance, billionaires and the GOP before pointing to “spineless Democrats who refuse to stand up for us even when they had the chance.”
He continued, “Watergate conspirators went to prison. This bunch gets away with worse on a daily basis.”
Then he added, “But now, the fury of the righteous has arisen, and their wrath shall rain down upon the wicked.”
