The Simpsons have given their own take on the race for the US presidency, by posting a two-minute campaign ad asking Springfield residents whether they prefer to have Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump in the White House.
The ad references a campaign ad once famously run by Hillary Clinton which featured a phone ringing at 3am and asking Americans who they wanted leading their country during a time of crisis.
The Simpsons’ take shows the phone ringing in the White House and asks Homer and Marge: “Who do you want answering that call?”
While The Simpsons aren’t categorical in whom they’re backing, they they’re less than flattering of Trump, showing him applying spray tan and reading a book of Adolf Hitler’s greatest speeches.
