Dan Greaney, an Emmy-winning writer for the long-running animated series “The Simpsons,” says he is running for president of the United States in 2028. Multiple outlets report that Greaney is the writer behind an episode commonly cited for seemingly forecasting Donald Trump’s presidency. Sources note that the episode “Bart to the Future” aired more than a decade before Trump became president, and it is frequently referenced in connection with later political events. The Independent and other outlets describe Greaney as referring to himself as a “prophet,” while additional coverage characterizes his announcement as a return to political prediction themes associated with the show. The reporting consistently frames the campaign announcement as Greaney’s personal bid for the White House, rather than as an endorsement of any candidate. Details beyond the campaign’s timing and Greaney’s background as a “The Simpsons” writer are limited in the provided accounts. Across the sources, there is agreement that Greaney launched his 2028 presidential bid and that his claim to fame in this context is his authorship of an episode that viewers interpret as predicting Trump’s presidency.
