A number of tweets have claimed that an episode of The Simpsons predicted that Trump would die on 27 August, 2020.
This inexplicably morphed into claims that Trump would die on 27 August, and that The Simpsons had predicted that his death would occur.
“okayokay so i just heard that the Simpsons predicted that Donald trump will die tomorrow?” wrote one user.
Many of the tweets also feature a doctored image of an animated Trump lying in a coffin, and drawn to look like it was sourced from a Simpsons episode.
