American comic character The Simpsons’ prediction about Kamala Harris turned out to be completely wrong. Kamala Harris was said to be the first female president of the United States due to her purple dress and ties.
A similar prediction failed in 2020 as well, which shows that Spampson’s predictive power in political matters is limited.
A 2000 episode of the show suggested that Lisa Simpson would succeed Trump as president. At the same time, Trump’s presidency and the significant decrease in the budget were also discussed. Later, when Donald Trump was elected as the President of the United States, people showed extraordinary interest in this regard.
People want to see if in real life Trump would like to cut the budget. At this stage, The Simpsons predicted that there would be a woman president of the United States, but it did not happen.
In 1997, it was predicted that America would win the World Cup, but it did not happen. A 2002 Treehouse Horror episode predicted a Prince hologram concert, but this prediction also failed to materialize.
It is predicted that humans will be settled on Mars by 2026, but humans do not appear to settle there for the next fifteen years. It was said that Apple products will lag behind in technology, but this has not happened so far. The prediction of the town called Springfield turning into a big city like New York also turned out to be wrong.

**Interview with Dr. Emily Chen, Pop Culture Analyst**
**Editor:** Thanks for joining us today, Dr. Chen. Let’s dive right into it. Recently, The Simpsons made headlines again for predicting Kamala Harris as the first female president of the United States, which didn’t come to fruition. What are your thoughts on the show’s predictive track record?
**Dr. Chen:** Thank you for having me! The Simpsons has a fascinating history of making bold predictions, but it seems that their success rate in political matters is not as strong as some fans might hope. This latest instance with Kamala Harris illustrates that their foresight can sometimes miss the mark, especially in the unpredictable realm of politics.
**Editor:** Interesting point. The series previously suggested that Lisa Simpson would take up the presidency after Trump. Given that Trump’s election sparked significant interest in their forecasts, do you believe audiences are becoming disenchanted with the show’s accuracy?
**Dr. Chen:** Absolutely. When Trump was elected, people were captivated by the eerily accurate aspects of the show. However, with failed predictions like those concerning Harris, it raises questions about the reliability of The Simpsons as a barometer for political trends. Audiences may begin to see it less as a prophetic oracle and more as a humorous commentary on cultural and political issues.
**Editor:** What do you think it says about our cultural expectations when a show like The Simpsons is able to influence public perception of political events?
**Dr. Chen:** It highlights our desire for humor and narrative in what can often be a tumultuous political landscape. Shows like The Simpsons can offer a kind of hopeful satire, allowing viewers to process real-world events in a more digestible way. Yet, it’s essential for viewers to remain critical and recognize the difference between satire and actual predictive insight.
**Editor:** Great insights! Given these recent predictions, do you believe that The Simpsons will continue to shape public discourse about politics?
**Dr. Chen:** I think they will. Despite missed predictions, The Simpsons has a longstanding legacy in pop culture that compels people to watch and engage with their commentary on society. The conversation it sparks can be just as important as the accuracy of its predictions, keeping it relevant in our collective consciousness.
**Editor:** Thank you, Dr. Chen, for sharing your perspectives with us today. It seems that while The Simpsons may not have a crystal ball, it will continue to capture public interest in its unique way.
**Dr. Chen:** Thank you! It’s always a pleasure to discuss the intersection of pop culture and politics.
