Dear God, as in all things, The Simpsons prophesied the rise of Donald Trump.
The year was 1995. The Season was 6, the Episode 12, called "Homer the Great", or colloquially as "The Stonecutter Episode"
Homer served in the role of Trump in this episode. After a lifetime outside, he begged for membership in the Stonecutters. He was finally, thanks to inheritance from his father, admitted to membership in the Stonecutters.
After his baffling and boorish behaviour (including using the Sacred Parchment - Stonecutters version of the Constitution) leads to him being banished from the Stonecutters by the members ("The Establishment"), the head of the local chapter (Number 1, Reince Preibus) notices that Home has "The Mark", a special signifier that makes him "The Chosen One", a long awaited leader, and he is installed as the head of the Stonecutters (nominee of the Republican Party).
He leads the Stonecutters (Republicans) to distinctly non-Stonecutter places, becoming mad with power, banishing those who (Lisa) disagree with him, whereupon, the local membership consults the Stonecutter world council (including George H.W. Bush) about whether they can kill him.
Number 1: "We need to face the bitter truth, as long as we're Stonecutters, he will control our lives."
Moe (#NeverTrump): "Maybe, but maybe we don't want to be Stonecutters no more"
Number 1: "Welcome to the first meeting of the Ancient and Mystic Society of NoHomers"

I bet there is an episode of the Simpsons where they actually have Trump in it as a character. I personally can't wait for South Park to get a hold of Trump.

Yeah, after a comedy desert (can't make fun of the black man) for the last 7.5yrs, we could use some laughs.

They already had a series of episodes in the past season lampooning Trump.

Interesting. It's only other black people. White people aren't allowed.
