"The Democrats are the party of Lisa Simpson and Republicans are happily the party of Homer, Bart, Maggie and Marge (http://thehill.com/homenews/375114-cruz-dems-are-the-party-of-lisa-simpson)," the U.S. senator from Texas -- who once "auditioned" for The Simpsons (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_K0sRkvX4KE) -- said today of the Fox animated comedy at the Conservative Political Action Conference. The Simpsons showrunner Al Jean responded on Twitter: "Ted Cruz says Maggie Simpson would vote for him. I think Ted's the one who could use a pacifier in his mouth." Jean added: "The way things are going even Mr. Burns is thinking of becoming a Democrat." As an MSNBC producer pointed out, The Simpsons once portrayed Lisa Simpson (https://twitter.com/kylegriffin1/status/966759503051051008) as becoming president and inheriting a President Trump budget crisis long before the president entered politics.
