After the nominees already set and the conventions finally completed, "The Simpsons" has decided to get political in a new short endorsing their presidential candidate of choice.
Fox's long-running series, which is set to begin its 28th season on September 25, released a video Saturday spoofing Hillary Clinton's famous "3 a.m." ad from the 2008 election cycle.
When the video begins, a distressed Marge decides she can't make love until she decides who she'll vote for in the upcoming election, which means the same goes for Homer. Coincidentally, there's a conveniently timed political ad as Homer clicks on his TV remote while they're in bed.
The ad shows Bill Clinton, dejectedly hands the phone over to Hillary after excitedly answering it. "It's for you," he tells the sleeping Hillary, to which she responds, "Yes. From now on, it's always for me."
Another scene shows Trump who appears to be dressed in Ebeneezer Scrooge-esque nightcap and gown, a book entitled “Great Speeches” by A. Hitler on the bed and, and on the wall a photo of what appears to be his eldest sons, Eric and Don Jr., clutching a dead cheetah.
Though Trump is awake to take the 3 a.m. call, he declines it because he’s busy tweeting something hateful about Elizabeth Warren, before barking orders demanding his name be added to the Lincoln Memorial, making Chris Christie eat a worm just for fun and disbanding NATO.
When the reality television star does finally answer the call, he’s delayed by a team who serves to prep his body for the general populace, a routine that involves spray-tanning, botox, fake hands and what appears to be a Maltese. The phone rings again; he’s too late.
In the end, Marge finally decides to become a Democrat.
