Simpsons creator predicts there will be 'dancing in the streets' when 'you know who' dies

Simpsons creator predicts there will be 'dancing in the streets' when 'you know who' dies -The Irish Star via MSN

As other animated series have criticized... Donald Trump and his administration, The Simpsons, known for its eerily accurate predictions over the years, appears to be adding its own thoughts to the fray.

Groening’s comment comes as South Park has not held back when it comes to its critiques of (Trump), including in its Season 27 premiere, which depicted him as a confused, unclothed character roaming the wilderness alongside Satan.

In the street and a long line of stalwarts ready to piss on his grave and maybe to deprecate also.

because the line is going to be LONG.

Maybe some taco trucks, while they're waiting in line.

I realized that I would've been awakened by the cacophony of car horns, music, and wild partying in the streets, so no need for me to check.

Will be gathering spots. Wow, I am going to get my sign ready because I’m sure this is coming.

Another thought is how I might decorate my car!

I will be ready to go in a split second!

I still have a couple very unsafe & insane fireworks left over from our last trip to Mexico. When the blessed day arrives you'll be able to hear them from my house no matter where you live.

If it's due to a health issue while still in office i think most people will be relieved. But there will be a crazy power grab in the MAGA cult. And in the Republican party.

have everyone join hands across their state.

It wouldn't work for a wide state like TN or NE but it could in NJ!

I plan to be alive to celebrate it, regardless.

It will be shaped like a casket, about 3' tall and 18" wide. It will say on two lines:

Buh

But he could just join his buddies Jeffrey, Adolf, Joseph and Heinrich quietly.



Then again, go undercover in the witness protection program for indicting Clinton, Obama, Biden and Colbert for treason.
