American animated series The Simpsons have become a talking point for its so-called "predictions" coming true this year. Even those who probably haven't even watched the show are curious about how does the show get everything right. The recent example was the Wuhan Pool Party. Now people are talking about the August 27 'prediction' about Donald Trump. Apparently, there is a prediction that says US President Donald Trump will die on August 27, as per The Simpsons. That is what the netizens are saying. The show has not featured any episode about Trump's death. So there is no backing to this claim and the exact source of origin is also not known. However, it has got everyone buzzing about August 27. Also, with a TikTok video mentioning the same date, everyone is waiting for this day. So what will happen today, maybe nothing at all!
August 27 also blew up as a meme on TikTok last month, when a user posted a video that blew up on the FYP page. The text in the video reads, "If this is on your FYP... Congratulations. You've been chosen. remember the date August 27th. It's important." It got over a million views and everyone wanted to know, what is happening on August 27. Several people joined in to share this vague date in their videos and soon it was a viral trend. So what exactly happens on August 27? Probably nothing at all. And then there are tweets that link it to the death of Donald Trump with reference to The Simpsons. Did The Simpsons Predict White House Lights Out?

It is most probably a rumour going on since there is no source of this. The animated show also hasn't featured an episode in which they talk or show of Donald Trump's death. So is anything really going to happen on August 27? Maybe not. It is all a part of the buzz created on social media.
