00:00 Non-college educated white men are the only demographic to support Donald Trump,

00:04 but the most famous one of all just endorsed Hillary.

00:08 Kinda.

00:09 The Simpsons released a two-minute short this weekend called "3AM."

00:13 It's a parody of Hillary Clinton's "3AM" ad that she released in 2008 during her primary campaign.

00:18 "But there's a phone in the White House and it's ringing.

00:21 Something's happening in the world.

00:24 Your vote will decide who answers that call."

00:27 The Simpsons short shows Trump completely ignoring a world crisis so that he can tweet mean things to people.

00:32 "And Elizabeth Warren tweets too damn much.

00:36 Glad I exiled her.

00:38 Send."

00:39 And that his hair is a carefully folded terrier.

00:42 At the end, Marge tells Homer, if he votes for Trump, that she will never have sex with him again.

00:52 "If that's your vote, I question whether I can ever be with you again."

00:56 "And that's how I became a Democrat."

01:00 It's unusual for an animated series, especially one on Fox, to endorse a presidential candidacy,

01:05 but this isn't the first time they've poked fun at what would happen to the world if Trump was in power.

01:10 In March 2000, Fox aired an episode called "Bart to the Future,"

01:13 generally considered to be one of the worst episodes ever.

01:16 "The worst episode ever."

01:19 But it did have one prophetic moment featuring President Lisa Simpson.

01:23 "As you know, we've inherited quite a budget crunch from President Trump.

01:27 How bad is it, Secretary Van Houten?"

01:30 "We're broke."

01:31 "The country is broke."

01:33 So while endorsements are a new thing, Trump criticisms are definitely not.

01:38 What you guys got to say about this?

01:39 Mandy Rezal writes, "If Hillary Clinton becomes president and moving back to my country, Afghanistan,

01:45 where there is a civil war, now if Trump becomes president, I don't have to because he will do it himself."

01:51 Mr. Joe 826 said, "The Simpsons is the only thing on Fox which is allowed to make fun of Republicans."

01:58 Ah, that was a good one.
