A high-profile Simpsons writer is hoping his prophetic chops can change America.
Dan Greaney, best known for the 2000 episode “Bart to the Future,” which features a dressed-up Lisa speaking about cleaning up the mess from a then-theoretical Trump presidency, is running for president.
And not of the fictional Springfield. The United States of America.
The Los Angeles-based Greaney says he will fix America if he wins in 2028 with a “progressive Republican” agenda akin to classic politicians like former Presidents Abraham Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt.
Greaney, clad in a Nostradamus-esque gray beard, announced his half-serious campaign in a video slamming both parties, the Trump administration, and billionaires.
“Trump, Vance, the billionaires, careerists, and cowards in both parties have turned their backs on [the United States,” he said. “It’s money, power, and security for them, but not for you.”
