Yes, The Simpsons is known for having “predicted” several events, including the idea of a woman becoming president. In a 2000 episode titled “Bart to the Future,” the show featured a storyline where Lisa Simpson becomes the first female president of the United States. The episode, which aired more than 16 years before Hillary Clinton ran for president in 2016, portrayed Lisa inheriting a country in financial turmoil from President Trump.
While The Simpsons didn’t specifically predict Hillary Clinton’s 2016 candidacy, it did depict a future with a female president, making it an eerie coincidence when a woman later ran for the highest office. In general, many of the show’s “predictions” are more a result of satirical social commentary and the show’s tendency to imagine exaggerated scenarios that occasionally align with real-world events.
